Beginning with the 2008 model year, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) changed the methods it uses to assess the fuel economy of vehicles sold in the U.S. The new testing methods, which would better reflect real-world driving habits, were expected to result in reduced gas mileage numbers across the board.
Because of its early launch, the 2008 Escape was one of the first to receive new new ratings. This Hot Sheet was designed to explain the new EPA ratings and address any customer confusion --- especially when 2007 and 2008 models would be on sales lots at the same time.
There is an exciting new tool provided by http://www.MileageLogger.com that will not increase your mileage but it will certainly make you money on mileage driven for business. IRS increased the mileage deduction rate to 0.58 Cents for every mile so you can get quite a bit of deduction when you file for taxes. http://www.MileageLogger.com offers a small portable device that will not only help you keep accurate mileage records but best of all is automatic and the records are sent to a online account.
