Fuel Saving Tip: Auto Myths Around Lake Orion

September 24, 2022



With high fuel prices in Lake Orion, Michigan, comes lots of gas saving advice. Some of it, like what you hear on  drive is great.  When you get one of those e-mails that's going around telling you how to save gas, try to think it through.

Does it really make sense? Does it defy the laws of physics?

Do some research on the internet or ask your Lake Orion, Michigan, service advisor at Tire Warehouse Depot.
