Fuel Saving Tip: Car Weight and Your Missouri Driving
December 26, 2021
Weight is the enemy of fuel economy. Everyone from Sikeston knows this makes sense.
Some of us in the Sikeston 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.
