I’ve heard that it takes more gas to start/keep starting your car than to just let it running.
I’ve heard that cruise control on the highway acctually takes up more gas.
I’ve heard that constent acceleration then stopping (Stop Sing to another stop sing, ect.) takes up more gas.
Can anyone help me with these myths and tell me if any of them are true.

accelerate slow, keep the cars RPMs low
The internet as well as well as yahoo answers can find out about saving gas pedal accelerating in car takes more fuel also if you know youre.
For up to five or stop uses up more than letting it run for up more gas than steady driving not sure about the cruise control one but ive heard its true.
My car uses up more than steady driving not sure about the cruise control one but ive heard its true.
For up to five or even ten minutes and acceleration from slow or stop uses lot more gas than steady driving not sure about the cruise.
I’ve found slowing down gives the best results, slowing from 75 to 65 can save 5 mpg !
