Fuel-Saving Tips for Summer Driving
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.

Importance of Proper Tire Pressure
Summer brings warm weather and great adventures, especially when driving the Wisconsin roads. Whether you’re taking a long-range road trip or a quick spin down to the local park, higher temperatures and longer driving can take a toll on your tires, reducing pressure and resulting in potential accidents. Our Jeep® service center has some insight into how to ensure your tires are properly inflated, keeping you roadworthy throughout the summer.
Whether you’re driving a Dodge Durango or a Jeep Compass, Griffin Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM would like to let you know why monitoring tire pressure and proper inflation is important. Under-inflated tires can slow your vehicle down, decrease your fuel efficiency, and make driving feel sluggish due to greater contact with the road. Over-inflated tires can wear unevenly, become rigid and inflexible, and are more likely to suffer damage while driving, impacting fuel economy and resulting in potential actions down the road.
Checking the pressure with a gauge is a great way to maintain proper tire pressure. Talk to one of our Jeep service technicians to learn the appropriate amount of pressure needed. We recommend checking your tire pressure in the morning, away from direct sunlight, for a more accurate reading. Also be sure to look for wear on your tires by performing the age-old Penny Test. Our Jeep dealership serving Jefferson, WI even stocks certified OEM and Mopar® parts and accessories.
Summer and driving often go hand-in-hand, and our Chrysler dealership wants to ensure that you avoid any pitfalls. Our dealers hope that you find these tips about tire pressure and inflation useful, and if you have more questions, please visit or contact us soon!
