Because this will inevitably come up, I thought I'd address it now... Can copper tubing, cheap magnets and wacky gimmicks really boost your mileage by as much as 300 percent?

I want in for 5 exclusive areas! My business is is the Carabean Islands. To avoid the costs of wiring money I'll send you a check from my business for $15,000. Take the $10,000 out for the 5 areas plus $1000 handling and send me the remainder ($4,000) in money orders. I anxiously wait to hear from you ...Geezer said:I have invented a fuel saving device that is a major technological breakthrough in combustion engineering. Called the "Eco Pedal", it is far more effective than pills, magnets or whirlybird type devices. The Eco-Pedal replaces the stock accelerator with an aftermarket pedal that includes a solenoid to provide increased resistance the harder you press. Eventually your calf muscles cramp up so bad that you just leave your car in the garage and bum a ride with somebody else. Scientific testing has shown that gas mileage can improve as much as 5000% depending on how much you used to drive.
We could have achieved the same results with a big-assed spring, but that wouldn't have justified the $149 price tag (plus installation). We are currently establishing our nationwide dealer network and you'll soon be seeing cheesy ads with outrageous claims and fake testimonials in the back of your favorite automotive publicaions. If you are interested in getting in on the ground floor of this fantastic moneymaking operation, send me $2500 in cash for an official Eco-Pedal Authorized Dealer Package. Act now to lock in your exclusive Eco-Pedal dealer territory!
I am sorry to inform you that just last week I assigned all rights to the Carribean market to a Mr. Mbuhtu Muhma Muhtamba, son of the Director of International Commerce in Nigeria for double your offer.chief52 said:I want in for 5 exclusive areas!

That's ok. I got a line on some new underwear from Nigeria or Yeman or somewheres over there...I guess they are all seconds, but I can get a really good price on them from some guy named Al something. They said they have a whole list of guys over here wanting to buy them...Geezer said:I am sorry to inform you that just last week I assigned all rights to the Carribean market to a Mr. Mbuhtu Muhma Muhtamba, son of the Director of International Commerce in Nigeria for double your offer.chief52 said:I want in for 5 exclusive areas!
