K, so that's 4k a year... fuel is $4/gallon, that's 1000 gallons of fuel/year.

1000 gallons of fuel/15k miles (average) 15MPG.

Most of the country (I hope) gets better mileage than this, and this figure assumes prices and usage in favor of the "inventor".

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
