So, as you read, remember: The data and descriptions in The Gas Miser's Guide go back almost 40 years. The original version has not been changed -- because the basic laws of physics remain the same. Fuel economy is still about moving weight over distance.

The Gas Miser's Guide is written with U.S. motorists in mind. That's why we refer to "miles per gallon."

You won't find anything in this booklet about battery-electric, gasoline-electric hybrid, and plug-in hybrid cars -- or about compressed natural gas (CNG), biodiesel or ethanol fuels. In 1974, these concepts and products were all "around the corner," "over the hill," or "beyond the horizon," to be discussed perhaps in a sequel Guide.

If this eBook version of The Gas Miser's Guide is successful as an inexpensive--about half the cost of a gallon of gas in the U.S.handbook, the authors plan to issue a completely updated sequel. By following our website or Facebook page, you will be notified when this happens.

Drivers who have followed practices described in the original Gas Misers Guide could have saved thousands of dollars on gasoline over the years. You, too, can start saving money the instant you receive your copy.
