All of this research is not really worth it for fuel economy concerns, because the increased fuel economy (if any) will not offset the additional cost of buying your product.
Setting a price is difficult. It's worth a lot more in performance markets than in fuel economy markets. My friends b*tch and moan about paying me 1/3 of the money they save using it. In bulk it would be pretty cheap, but I don't want to be filling tiny bottles with a syringe and shipping it, though it might be worthwhile for fleets.

I'd still like to find the "sweet spot" for my '99 Ranger 2.5L I'd still Like to figure it out even though I don't drive much and use about 15 gallons of fuel a month. Every dollar counts for me. Watching the instant mileage is amusing, but watching the speedometer and the road is more important to me.
