Nicks Car Tips #6 - I should have thought of that

Now here's a really simple idea that I saw the other day, and said to myself, "I should have thought of that!" The next time that you're going to drive around to several errands or locations, drive to the furthest one first, then hit the rest on your way back.

Why? Because driving to the furthest location first will allow the car more time to warm up, so it will be running more efficiently, and have lower emissions. If you go to the nearest location first, the car might not even get to the normal operating temperature. So with one simple step, we can save gas and money, and have cleaner air. And when you finish your last errand, you're almost home. Easy!

Best wishes for safe driving!
