Easy way to cut costs

I still delight in the fact that my motorhome has about 8 mpg better economy than my last tow car so I am happy with that

Our MH definitely does more MPG than our tow car🤣 And that’s solo😁

I use cruise control on motorway sections and it definitely helps MPG.

I too was told to drive as if there was an egg between my foot and the accelerator.

Another tip, (from a chauffeur) was to drive as if you had a glass of water balanced on the bonnet! Makes for smooth driving at all times!

I was taught the 'glass of water on the bonnet' method by my dad when I was a teenager.  Later went on to enjoy tuition from MDS at Lancashire.

Adaptive cruise control really comes into its own on long sections of motorway roadworks. Knowing that it will keep the car a set distance behind the car in front is really relaxing when vehicles are bunched together. I accept that, in an emergency stop you cannot rely on it but for normal variations in speeds it is brilliant.

I was taught never to put glass on a car in case it damages it, as for eggs inside a car-that’s just stoopid🤷🏻‍♂️🙄😂😂

Keep caravan or motor home  at home and have a stay cation on drive 

But first check that  your landlord won't increase your rent, nor the Council do similar to your rates  

I had cruise control on my old Santa Fe which I could always beat with a light right foot, however, my Mazda CX5 is very frugal on CC and I engage it as soon as I have a good clear road. The problem these days is finding a good clear road!

BTW I find no problem with the OP, especially when it comes to saving fuel, good for our wallets and the planet. 

One last point, light on the right foot also helps keep a safe distance behind the car in front, which as well as good safe driving reduces the fuel needed to return to "cruising" speed.

apologies for last post, I now realise that I'm repeating myself, repeating myself, another senior moment!
