💡 3 golden rules for cottage trips
- 1. Fill up before the last highway exit. Tourist-village pumps average 8-15 ¢/L more than urban stations.
- 2. Friday 2-4 PM or early Saturday. Skip the 5-7 PM jam at exits 39, 68 and 122 on A-15, A-10 and A-40.
- 3. Winter + wind + grades = +20% consumption. Below half tank? Plan a stop before climbing.
