I heard from someone that keeping the car in neutral while waiting at a stop light saves gas. (if it does work, would it be beneficial to put the fot on the brakes) Is this true? I have a 02 accord V6.

Umpalumpa asked:


I commute every day for 25 miles and 20 miles are pure interstate with a 70 mph limit. I own a 98 Nissan Altima GXE and I was wondering if there is a specific speed I should go on the interstate to save gas. I was told 50 but its hard to believe I think its too low. Any ideas?

Do you save more gas in a higher gear or a lower gear?

I always hear talk about people with manual transmissions save more gas than people with automatic cars. I have the old school manual. Not this new stuff where there is no clutch. I have a clutch on mine the old school stick shift. Anyway, I’ve been trying to save gas. Do I burn more gas in a higher gear or a lower gear. Where should I keep the RPM’s when I’m driving in the higher or lower gear at that as well? Example. It redlines at 9000 RPMS. I’m trying to save gas. Should I have it halfway driving in that particular gear, and should I be driving in a high or low gear so I don’t burn as much gas?
