Fuel Saving Tip: Car Weight and Your Michigan Driving

August 8, 2022



Weight is the enemy of fuel economy. Everyone from Grand Haven knows this makes sense.

Some of us in the Grand Haven area carry a bunch of unnecessary weight, and I'm not talkin' what you see in the mirror.

Lose the junk and save some money.

...And you really only need one of those spare tires.
