"But, maybe the calculator is only intended for those trading in something newer with low miles."
 
That's my beef with it, it's right if you're thinking of trading an '05 whatever, but it should give a different answer in the situation you posed - regardless of gas price people will trade in at some point.

That's not "NBC News" - that's a local affiliate TV station.

My favorite part is when he shows scraps of notebook paper where he has jotted down big company names to "prove" that they have contacted him.

Yeah, that's rich. I just emailed the reporter, asked him why he's advertising a scam. We'll see what he says...

havent heard anything about either of these links/ sites you have posted.
 
i heard using a little "Pure Acetone" (from a beauty supply store) in your tank (approximately 3oz per 10 gallons) will boost mileage up to 40 miles per tank on average.
 
i'm going to try it today actually and see if it does work

Be advised, it can destroy rubber and will eat your paint. It also increases the pressure in your gas tank possibly interferring with emissions. My question. Does the added cost of acetone, plus the hazards add up to any savings? Snopes says it does NOT increase your mileage.
 
Welcome to the forum
 
And be careful with that stuff. I would not try it in any car under warranty. It could void it.
