Not true! On most of the other cars I have owned I have routinely gotten BETTER gas milage than what the rating said.

On my 8, I get anywhere between 15 and 19, depending on how many times I beep.:D Even when I was breaking her in and driving like my grandma, I still only got 17 to 19 mpg.

hahahaha sorry, hope you didn't spend too much time on it. I acutally only did that in case someone tried to convince me that I actually believed all that BS.

Sneaky, devious creature who knows how to cover his butt. Beware of this man

I wasn't kidding at all about the "Engine Ionizer" TV commercials, BTW. Typical TNN (or whatever it is these days) cable channel commercial fun many months ago. "Adds horsepower! Improves milage!"

It was only a matter of time, as everything is being ionized these days. Cats, dogs, mother-in-laws...
