One very effective way to save fuel is just to put the car in the highest gear possible. This means you can't drive aggressivly (as you get little acceleration) and you only drive at about 1000-1500 revs.
Not really supposed to do this as your not in full control of the car but I don't think many people but the people behind you will notice.

Driving an automatic is just plain lazynass and it also means you don't have as much control over what gear you're in, meaning you can't drive an economically as you should be able to.

not necessarily... I drive an automatic and a manual vehicle as well. I can still control the RPM of the automatic transmission car in between gears.
