HHO gas
alright, so im still searching for more ways to save on gas with the prices skyrocketing. i found something called HHO gas. u can supposedly change ur car over to it without a huge investment or changing the fuel systems already in ur car. here r some links.

Seriously I think most of these products don't work. They have tested many and they just don't do the trick.
Go buy a Volkswagen Jetta GTI Diesel this summer. It will get 45-50mpg.
The Polo gets 70mpg but its Euro only.

They should take the warning labels off of everything and let stupidity sort itself out.

HHO use in cars is a scam. If it was that simple, we'd see manufacturers making them.
We're seeing higher MPG cars entering the US but we won't match Europe's MPG until we match their gasoline cost - it's about 3 to 4 times as costly as here in the US.
The cars over there are tiny as well.
Fatals suggestion about getting the new VW diesel is a good one. |

"The rain it raineth every day, and every night also -- week in and week out, from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, there is nothing but rain, rain, rain, 'The windows of heaven are opened up.' Pluvius, grieved at some earth-giving wrong, weeps as if he never would dry up." - Overland Press (Olympia, WA), December 1861 |

one of the reasons we dont see this stuff in our markets now is because oil companies pay car companies to keep gas mileage low. they also buy up the patents on these things and then they disappear. |
