A family member is starting a job to be a Rural Carrier Associate and is required to use her own car. Will a Garmin GPS Navigation system help to save gas by avoiding missed turns, especially when being on new routes all the time?
Any other gas saving tips or vehicle suggestions for Rural Mail Carriers welcome.

What is the best way to save gas at LONG traffic lights?
I work as a delivery driver, so I drive A LOT. What can I do to save gas when I am delivering the food to the customer?
It takes about 3-5 minutes to get to their door, ring the doorbell, give them the food, take the cash and get back to my car.
What should I do during the time I am delivering the food?
Turn off the car?
Put it in Park?
Neutral with parking brake?
Any other ideas?

… asked:
I was thinking about doing this thing where when I am about to stop at a light ahead of me, I put my car in neutral and cruise to the light and eventually stop. Then I stay there in neutral until the light is about to turn green again. Can this help save gas?

I heard from someone that keeping the car in neutral while waiting at a stop light saves gas. (if it does work, would it be beneficial to put the fot on the brakes) Is this true? I have a 02 accord V6.

So all this research that is going into hydrogen fuel cells, hybrid technology, and other alternate energy sources for automobiles, is there any corresponding research for airplanes or trucks, or other such things that require huge amounts of fuel, whether it is jet fuel or diesel fuel?
