The car companies are not keeping any fuel saving devices from the market. Think about it. If GM invented something like that it would be on every model they make as a marketing tool. How many buyers would get a GM product if it used half as much fuel as the other brands. There is one reason a car company might not put a gas saving device on their cars. If the device was so expensive that it cost more than the fuel that would be saved the car would be too expensive to compete in the market.

Put it right up there with the Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction. I had heard about it in the “40′s” right after the war. The **** had invented it because they were oil short. You know it was really a **** space ship at Roswell? Our people had gotten some the equipment and the Blueprints of the Carb. I was working as a Machinist in the “80′s” when one of my co-workers announced he had the prints to make any car get a hundred miles per gallon. When I laughed, he challenged me prove him wrong. He was busily remodeling his carb. He had paid only $500 for the secret prints.. I told him OK. I’d give him a carb for my truck to work on. I was getting less then 20Mpg. pulling my trailer. If he got my truck up to only 50 mpg I’d gladly pay his original $500 fee in full and I’d sign a waiver to never let it fall into someone else’s hands. If he didn’t get me to 25mpg he’d pay me $250 .No deal. He later admitted he never got a single MPG improvement on his.. I told him Barnum said “There’s one born every second”.With our auto industry on the ropes , if they had that carb, they’d pull it out right now. I’m watching the papers for the first sales with one in it..I’ve got my down payment ready. Do you?

I think that they have no interest in increasing our MPG just yet. In America we average among the lowest in fuel efficiency. Most of Europe and Asia are well ahead of us in this technology. Mostly because we are obsessed with bigger and faster cars and trucks. There is no reason that we can’t overcome this issue, but we first need to address the “why”. As Americans, we need to rethink our fixation with having the biggest, best, and baddest if we are going to get more fuel efficient cars. Bottom line is that we don’t have too many fuel efficient cars because there is virtually no demand for them. If there was a buck to be made from them you better bet your tushy car companies would find a way to make them.

Idiotic. If such a device existed areas like Europe and Japan and many other areas which do not have oil would have been using it for years. They have had high fuel prices for years. They have excellent engineers and scientists. No company(s) could keep it from them.

Look at Japan alone. A country the size of California with the population approaching the US. No oil or coal to speak of. Imports huge amounts of energy and 60% of their food. Depends energy for industry to survive. Do you really think they would not be using any practical device that would save energy?

I am constantly amazed at the lack of education and knowledge shown by “Environmentalists”.

keep your eyes on the chevy volt, this car is one to watch.
the car will run on electric battery power for the first 40 or so miles, so….if you keep within your distances you will not use gas.
sounds great huh

i invite you to
here is where you can talk and reasearch hho stuff,

NO!! it is the EPA lost us about 17 % by adding the smog devices.
