Concerned Drivers Fight Back with 'Mileage Master's' Fuel-Saving Secrets
Former New York Times Syndicated Columnist Bob Sikorsky Releases
New Title, American Drivers Fight Back: How We Can Get More Miles Per Gallon
and Reduce Our Dependence on Imported Oil
TUCSON, AZ -- 09/01/2006 -- Fed up with high gas prices? Frustrated by our
nation's continued dependence on imported oil? Bob Sikorsky can help. In the
second edition of his bestselling book, American
Drivers Fight Back: How We Can Get More Miles Per Gallon and Reduce Our Dependence
on Imported Oil, this former New York Times syndicated columnist
reveals his secrets of high-mileage driving, detailing hundreds of ways consumers
can:
- Dramatically increase everyday fuel economy
- Double or triple your mileage in an emergency
- Make the most of city and highway driving
- Beat the high prices at the pump
- Reduce pollution and fight global warming
- Fight terrorism by cutting our dependence on foreign oil
Sikorsky believes that American drivers don't have to wait years for Detroit
or Tokyo to solve our energy problems-they can turn their current vehicles into
high-mileage machines right now.
"We have a choice each and every time we drive," says Sikorsky. "We can be
aggressive, fuel-, car-, and money-wasting, unsafe, polluting, climate-changing,
terrorist-helping drivers, or we can drive economically with all of its associated
benefits of increased safety, reduced emissions, more miles per gallon, longer
vehicle life, money saved, a minimal environmental vehicle footprint, and doing
our part to help fight terrorism."
James Bishop Jr., Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Energy is also a believer,
having noted, "American Drivers Fight Back is the sort of book we hope
will become widespread in America because it shows there are things people can
do. If we can get it into the hands of the average driver, we can start cutting
down on fuel consumption right away."
"We have a choice each and every time we drive," says Sikorsky. "We can be
aggressive, fuel and money-wasting, unsafe, polluting, climate-changing, terrorist-helping
drivers, or we can choose to drive economically. Doing so allows consumers to
reap a litany of personal, national and global benefits, including increased
safety, increased fuel economy, longer vehicle life, reduced emissions, a minimized
environmental vehicle footprint, and the satisfaction that we have done our
part to help fight terrorism."
