<![CDATA[Under-Inflated Tires Cause Additional Fuel Consumption]]> http://www.topspeed.com/cars/gas-saving-tips/under-inflated-tires-cause-additional-fuel-consumption-ar29652.html


An estimated 93.5 percent of motorists in the EU are driving on under-inflated tyres and causing an additional 18 million tons of carbon dioxide to be released into the environment. These 18 million tons are the equivalent of 56 million tyres being wasted. To collect this data, Bridgestone conducted free check-ups at various shopping centers and public car parks throughout Europe. Based on 2006 data, Bridgestone also estimates 40 percent of vehicles absorb an additional 2.8 percent in fuel, due to their under-inflated tyres, wasting 8.1 billion liters of fuel every year. Bridgestone, in conjunction with the FIA Foundation (Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile) and national motoring clubs, is part of the “Think Before You Drive” campaign, established in 2005.

<![CDATA[Monthly Lease Payments Calculation (glossary and formulas)]]> http://www.topspeed.com/cars/car-lease-guide/monthly-lease-payments-calculation-glossary-and-formulas-ar30891.html


Dealers use the formulas given in this article, and they would prefer if you did not know about it, or how to use it. They are also not required by federal leasing regulations to disclose how they calculate your payments.

The sad but real truth is that many of the people who lease do not know how to check the math calculations on their leasing contract. This leaves room for errors, or even fraud. This is the biggest reason why it is important to have knowledge of how to calculate lease payments. The lack of knowledge is why most people who lease are overpaying these days.
