Fuel Saving Tip: Car Weight and Your VA Driving

Posted July 19, 2026 12:40 PM

Weight is the enemy of fuel economy. Everyone from Chantilly knows this makes sense.

Some of us in the Chantilly area carry a bunch of unnecessary weight, and I'm not talkin' what you see in the mirror.

Guys: sports equipment and tools. Ladies: well, just take a look around the passenger compartment and trunk. I think my car has about 45 pounds of French fries on the floor.

All that extra weight wastes gas as you drive between here and there, and everywhere else.

Lose the junk and save some money.

...And you really only need one of those spare tires.

I love going here because everyone is very helpful & kind. They make sure I know what's going on with my car & will text & call me to keep me updated on everything. They make your wait as comfortable as possible too with a very comfortable waiting room that has free coffee, tea, soda, water , and even snacks.

High Tech did an excellent job correcting very complicated problems on my Jeep stroker motor that were caused by another shop. The team went above and beyond to chase down overheating and steering problems to make Jeep strong and reliable. I will happily recommend High Tech for even the most complex tasks. Great team!
