Convert it to hybrid or full on electric. That's about the only way.

The best and easiest thing you can do is keep up with general maintenance. This includes checking tire pressure, keeping up with oil changes, checking air filter, plugs, wires, and possibly even distributor, and rotor. Also, probably at 10 years old you're ready to change your transmission oil, transfercase oil, and even your differentials. Differentials and manual transmissions take gear oil (see your manual for proper weight), and your transfercase and automatic trans take automatic transmission fluid (again see manual for weight). If you're running with the 4 cylender, it tends to run rich (lot of gas, little air) and can sometimes be helped with a hotter ignition coil. Also running either all terrains or plain road tires will help a lot more than with massive mud tires. And any kind of lift or external accessory will kill it as well.
Other than that, your driving habits effect it as well. Don't drive in 4wd unnecessarily. Don't take off at stoplights. And, don't run around with 500+ pounds of tools or other stuff in the back.
There are a lot of things out there that are supposed to help, but with the amount of gas you save when buying them, you'll have to run another 100,000 miles or so to see any savings.

Georgie Boy has it right. One other thing that they did not mention that made a very large difference in mine was the O2 sensor. Also, if you're considering putting in an additive, I would highly recommend SeaFoam. It's going to be the best thing to clean out your fuel system and it's relatively inexpensive. Good Luck!!

by secondary, i assume you have stumbled on a minimum of one. generally, there is one in the gas line below the motor vehicle alongside the drivers ingredient exterior physique rail. the 2nd may be in the engine compartment the place the gas line feeds into the intake equipment..in case you have gas injectors it is going to likely be someplace between the gas line and the feeder rail to the injectors..in case you have gas injection the gas is below rigidity, so care could be taken to alleviate the rigidity in the past unhooking any line. in case you have a carburetor, the filter out may be the place the gas line is going into the carburetor. take a minute to make certain if this something previous what you elect to objective to swap....sturdy success

Bigger throttle body spacer. Either a cold air intake or a K&N filter and a less restrictive exhaust.

Trade it in on something with better fuel economy. It is ten years old.
