Fuel Saving Tip: Car Weight and Your Michigan Driving
August 1, 2021
Weight is the enemy of fuel economy. Everyone from Clawson knows this makes sense.
Some of us in the Clawson area carry a bunch of unnecessary weight, and I'm not talkin' what you see in the mirror.

Lose the junk and save some money.
...And you really only need one of those spare tires.
