Most M/T drivers think that shifting very quickly is the best way to save fuel. I used to be one of them, wondering why I simply cannot get great fuel numbers. I just realized that as I shift from one gear to another, I tend to step on the pedal deeper. This means that the throttle is opened wider, which means more fuel consumption.

The rule of thumb in driving efficiently is to step on the pedal as if there were bits of broken glass on it such that if you step hard, it will be painful. From my experience, I learned that I should only shift if I can afford to step on the pedal very lightly. In that manner I got better mileage.

As for A/T users, always keep overdrive (OD) ON. Many confuse this thing as a performance booster, which implies more consumption. Actually, it's the other way around. With OD on, the transmission uses all the gears, while if it's off, it will not use the top gear. Switch OD off only when:

- going down a steep road (to provide more engine braking)
- towing a trailer while driving uphill
- in the middle of stop-and-go driving
