With just a quick search on Google, you'll be overwhelmed by the amount of products making these preposterous claims. There are products that range from $40 - $200 for sale on many websites. Many of the facts and figures that are being used to sell these products have long been exposed by the EPA.
The Environmental Protection Agency doesn't certify labs and neither does the U.S Federal Government give endorsements to any fuel saving products for vehicles. And yet, some of the sellers of these products try to claim that their products have indeed been tested and endorsed by the EPA - Certified Labs.
Let's face it, with the amount of pressure that auto manufacturers are faced with to provide better fuel economy for their consumers, don't you think that if any of these so-claimed gas saving products actually worked, that they'd incorporate them into the making of their cars?
Although it may seem very tempting to stretch your gas dollar to the maximum, especially when you can purchase a product that appears promising for around $20 - it's best to apply caution. At best, most just won't work, while others at worst have been shown to cause engine damage.
So, before you attempt to save money by spending cash on some of these fuel-saving schemes, you'd best consider that the real hypermilers, those who actually do get 40 MPG out of a car that's rated for 27mpg, are doing it with techniques that are as simple as just coasting until a car runs out of acceleration. That's not a technique you can sell from a web page, but it's one of the easiest, no-cost ways of how to increase your gas mileage.
