Folks save more gas by simply keeping the foot off the gas pedal. Go slower. Instead of driving 85 slow down to 65 MPH. Air up the tires to keep them inflated property.

Don't accelerate fast when you see the light down the road changing to red.

Driving slower will save more gas and do it without any added expenses.

Honda has a new Fuel Cell Powered car coming out in 2008. It's going to be leased to people in California first. They will have home filling stations that will be able to use solar energy to make hydrogen gas for the fuel cells.

This technology is being used to power enemy submarines right now in the Oceans around the world.

The Germans are leaders in the Fuel cell powered subs. I think that Sweden has them too. The Chinese are going to be buying these along with Iran and other countries that are not always friendly with the USA.

If they are reliable enough to use at 1000 ft below the surface of the Ocean and to drive a submarine hundreds of miles under the ocean then they would easily work on our automobiles on dry land.

All that's needed is for a President to show leadership with the congress to make it happen. All they have to do is produce these cars and drop gasoline engines and setup a fueling system throughout the USA.

Best thing is that they run on water and only exhaust water vapor. Water is split into oxygen and hydrogen and then recombined to make electricity.

Check out the Honda web site and see for your self.

Or just google "fuel cell" and see what's going on.

We need leaders that will stand up to the Oil Companies and OPEC and tell them to go to He((>

Has anyone here bolted one of these products on a similar truck and if you have did you notice a difference in mileage?

Any other bolt ons available? I suppose dual exhaust helps but in the past I never could tell much of a difference on my previous vehicles, of course too way back then I didn't run duals for gas mileage purposes either, lol...
