One more way to save gas and is especially apparent on the highway is to go the speedlimit. It's something that I hated to hear, but think about it like this - half an hour of keeping your engine at 3000+ RPMs (80 MPH) versus half an hour keeping your engine at ~2200 RPMs (55 MPH) is a substantial difference in energy and gas needs. I used to work for an express courier service and driving like a grandma saved me $50 - $70 dollars a week since I didn't drive a company truck and had to pay for my own gas.
Plus if you do the speedlimit you won't get pulled over which can cost you more money than gas would for a whole year.
