Low air pressure in your tires reduces your gas mileage and increases the likelihood of an accident. Check the air pressure in your tires once a month. Not sure how? Ask your local auto mechanic to show you. You'll be saving gas and money.

That amount is enough to buy 37 million year-long subscriptions to satellite radio!
