Bobs Eye View
FUN FACTOID:
For every penny that gasoline goes up at the pump, the oil companies increase their profits by one billion dollars! Rub your eyes and read that again. ONE BILLION DOLLARS for every additional penny we pay at the pump!
Bobs Eye View Bonus - Gas-Saving Tips
Lose any extra weight you are carrying in your vehicle. If you have any bowling balls in the trunk of your car, or dead bodies, get rid of them. You will see a noticeable improvement in your gas mileage, as well as the smell in your vehicle.
Lose weight. I would recommend a gastric bypass. That could possibly save you a few dollars per week. Shaving your head will help even further.
Drive naked. Not only will your gas mileage improve, you will feel one with the road, and possibly make new friends at rest areas. If you are ever stopped by the police while driving naked, and asked to produce your license and registration, get out of the car, bend way over, and slowly say, "You want them, go get them." Tell the police that Bobs Eye View told you to say that.
On interstate highways, drive at least 30-40 miles per hour slower than the posted speed limit. That way, vehicles, especially trucks or buses, will create a vacuum behind them, as they speed by you at roughly the speed of sound. Your vehicle, with your naked body inside, will be sucked into that vacuum and be carried along at the faster speed, without increasing your gas mileage.
