Gas Fleet Cars
If you are interested in saving gas, fleet cars can be a touchy subject. For companies fleet cars can be made more affordable. The first step is to evaluate what kind of vehicles you are using and if they are the best choice economically. Next you may want to think about providing your drivers with gas fleet cards which are preloaded with a certain amount of money so they can pay at the pump. And, you will definitely want to educate your drivers on various fuel conservation techniques which will help your bottom line.
For example, in winter months vehicles should be warmed up no longer than 45 seconds. Some let their cars idle for up to 20 minutes trying to 'warm up' the vehicle. All this does is waste gas and makes no difference in the performance of the car. Another tip is to keep the windows up whenever possible. Driving with the windows down has a slightly detrimental effect on gas mileage. In addition, it is important to keep tires inflated to their maximum capacity but do not overinflate. Tune ups should be done regularly because various components under the hood can make a difference in mileage also.
Dirty and worn spark plugs can reduce mileage. There are gas saving spark plugs which aren't going to make a gigantic difference but will make a small one. Most gas saving strategies each equal small savings, but lots of small savings can eventually add up to a substantial savings. This is definitely what you want if you are a fleet owner struggling with the high cost of fuel in today's shaky economy. There are plenty of online resources you can use such as those by the FTC and EPA that will teach you more fuel saving tips.
When trying to conserve gas, fleet cars are a special case because there are more than one of them. You can distribute literature to your drivers or hold meetings on how to conserve fuel. The little things you can do to save fuel may not sound like much but as mentioned previously they can really add up. You will find those preloaded gas fleet cards are being used less and more money is going into your business rather than into a gas tank.
