To conserve, we must slow down and find ways to do more with less. The benefits of fuel conservation are a healthier environment, financial savings and improved safety on our roads.

For years, AAA has periodically published guides to car care and fuel economy. In 1943, AAA published its first guide, Keep 'em Rolling, to assist with gasoline rationing required by World War II. In 1974, when American motorists faced soaring gas prices brought on by the Arab Oil Embargo, AAA published Rolling Along with the Gasoline Shortage and the first Gas Watcher's Guide.
