There's a video on CNN that offers tips on saving gas. If you don't want to watch it, it's really boring, I'll give you the highlights.
1. Driving with your air conditioner on saves gas because today's cars are so aerodynamic that having the windows down is less efficient. This does not apply to traffic. In traffic windows go down, AC goes off.
2. Cruise Control saves gas because you drive at a steady rate.
3. Make sure you have plenty of air in your tires
4. Grade of fuel is irrelevant. Use cheapest grade your owner's guide will allow.
5. Running your car for one minute instead of turning it off does not save gas.
