Griffin Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Jefferson

Jun 11, 2018

If there’s something that Griffin Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM knows about Jefferson, WI drivers, it’s that they love a good road trip. However, we also know that rising fuel costs can have an impact on driving, and our staff wants to help our customers get greater bang for their buck. In that spirit, our Jeep service center has some great advice for drivers to save fuel in their Jeep Cherokee or RAM 1500.

Although monitoring fuel consumption on your dashboard and using cruise control are great ways to keep an eye on gas consumption, there are other driving habits that can help. Applying steady pressure to the accelerator, rather than “flooring it”, provides consistent acceleration and uses much less fuel. Several mobile applications are available as well, which help you find the nearest gas stations with the lowest prices.

Additional fuel-saving tips include

  • Making fewer trips
  • Trying to avoid stop-and-go traffic
  • Removing unneeded cargo carrying items, such as a roof rack
  • Keeping windows/sunroof closed to minimize drag

If you bring your vehicle to our Jeep service center, our technicians can help you find and fix potential issues that impact fuel consumption. Handling everything from oil changes to tire inflations, our mechanics are able to guide you and provide strategies for saving fuel and money as you drive. If you need anything repaired or replaced, our new and used car dealership also features a wide selection of certified OEM and Mopar® parts and accessories to keep your vehicle running efficiently.
