That would make gathering odometer data rather difficult- must have gotten all the data needed back when the speedo/odo worked.

BTW, the speedo only goes to 100mph... FWIW.

My reality is impressive enough for most of the people I meet. I don't need to make up nonsense. Google me to see I've been around awhile and you'll not see much (if any) negative.

I do not mind 'picked apart' as long as it's honest. I've been saving fuel since 1974 and have gotten quite tired of people telling me I can't do what I already did

Saving fuel is what I DO for a living and I'm trying to help as many people as I can. I see a lot of stuff going on here that I've already done and it'll be good to share with people who are serious about saving fuel.

I will, of course, present evidence whenever possible. Like I said, I've been doing this a long time and I know the score. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
George promised there would be no bogusness so hopefully he will point out where I screwed up...
