So today at work I was asking a co-worker about cars, cause I absolutely don't know anything about it. There is all these letters for what ever gear, I've never even knew what they stand for the only one I know is P for Park, N for Neutral, R for Reverse and then there is D for Drive. But instead just D it has D1, D2, D3, D4 and I was like, "what the hell is all this 1, 2, and 3 numbers for".
Well he was like its just how strong you want your car to go or something like that. I'm not so sure, then all of a sudden we was talking about which kind of cars saves more gas and how you can prevent using too much gas too. For sure I'm 100% for hybrid cars.
Here's the trick, instead of speeding to past a red light try not speeding that takes up so much gas when you're pushing on the accelerator. And instead of braking really close to a stop, try braking from a far distance, just let the car slow down by itself and slowly step on the brake towards the end. Don't step and go not good. And I guess it's also good for your brakes too. Always remember to get oil change after a certain among of mileages. That prevents the car from breaking down and prevent your car from smoking up. You know what I mean smoking up? It's like when you're driving down some street and some car speed up from behind you, leaving a cloud of black smoke. Yep, that's what I meant, so remember to change your oil. If you don't, its gonna get all stick and gooey and it'll get clog up. You would rather spent a couple of dollars then end up spending thousands of dollars on fixing it.
My #1 rule of thumb for everything is 'Always try to prevent it, then try fixing it later'. That rule of thumb goes for everything in life not just cars. Correct me if I'm wrong I know everything I'm saying here isn't all gonna be facts. I'm not an expert in automotive and I just know how to drive, put gas, refill coolant and all that simple stuff. So I hope that these tips are some what helpful. And Cars is some what your best investment. Well at least its' mine so far. If you have other tips let me know...
