If you're a quart low in your vehicle, there isn't enough motor oil to lubricate your engine properly. The extra friction causes drag that reduces fuel economy while you're driving around the Pelham area.
The same goes for dirty oil; it doesn't reduce friction properly. The result is you get to watch those numbers at your local Pelham gas pump rolling higher and higher.
