Keep your foot out of the throtle and try not to go over 2,500 RPM!! It sucks to drive like a grandma but you can improve your mpg by about 2 or 3.
I have been trying it the last few weeks. I used to be the guy first out of the light and late braking at the next red light but now I am the guy the others pass and than I roll up next to em at the next stop!!!

Short answer is no and no.
The subject has been discussed over and over again and the answer is still the same......... Quote:

So simple: don't drive fast, don't accelerate quickly and check your tires. CAI's and that crap will not add MPG's to a 4000+lb SUV.

Consider weight loss and amputate that lead foot.
Try these as well: Remove the rear and passenger seat. Toss out the spare. Eat one less sandwich at lunchtime Drive under 55mph. Keep your tires to 32psi cold. all around. Go with lighter 17 or 18"s wheels. Drive with the windows closed. remove the sub in the trunk. Drive naked (not recommended in some states, especially if youre ugly). Get a wheel alignment. Never offer to drive anyone. Use premium fuel. Drive with both hands on the wheel (rather than ghetto style one hand on top) Sit upright instead of in a lawn chair position Keep your radio and other unnecessary electronics off while driving. Thats all i can think of for now... enjoy.
