5 iPhone apps that can save you gas

While you wait for us to test drive the Kiwi, you have options for saving gas by using your iPhone. Earth2Tech lists five iPhone applications that are cooler than using a notepad and pen to track your mileage. They each cost about the same as a new notepad at the drug store.

MPG tracks your mileage and gives you some fancy graphs and comparisons of each tank-full, based, I’m sure, more on your driving performance than your car’s performance. FuelGage and GasHog do the same thing as MPG but don’t have the pretty graphs. Each application costs just 99 cents.

There is also CarStat, which is like FuelGage and GasHog, but costs $1.99. Not the best deal.

And if you don’t want to spend anything at all to save money on gas, you can grab WHERE, which tells you gas prices at the nearest stations so you can find the cheapest option without wasting gas driving around doing your own comparisons.
