I wish the Government would allow a tax credit to the operator of a vehicle who adds on some type of fuel saving device, either mechanical or aerodynamic. Tax credits were given in the past to people who purchased hybrid vehicles. They should be available to those who ecomod their vehicles also.
Everyone write your representatives in Washington and sugggest such a tax credit.

Perhaps some administration types are data-mining the web and will stumble across this issue and have a light-bulb moment.It would be a smart move and nice show of support for the troops making an extraordinary sacrifice to keep foreign oil flowing to the U.S.."Energy-Star,"Green-Rated auto add-on devices with tax credits,as they already do with home appliances,insulation,doors and windows for homeowners.National labs could do the testing and certification.NASA has no doubt spent hundreds of billions of tax dollars doing R&D to save commercial airline fleets money through powerplant and airframe mods.They could do likewise with America's automotive fleet.And good timing as fuel again pushing prices under imaginary forces.------------ They talk the talk,let's see if they walk the walk.----------- Brett,congrats on the "money-back" aero-shell sale.She's a beaut!------ The "Friends of Aerodynamic Renaissance Technology"(FART) tip their hats to your efforts and defend your right to "pass gas" stations whenever you choose,and will be vigilant to expose anything that "smells" of a concerted effort to deny your freedoms.Your a hero,see ya,Phil.
