Less weight = more MPG. That is how it works, then!

Seriously though, I wouldn't mind trying one. Mythbusters did a show on things to increase fuel economy, but unfortunately, these types of devices were not tested.

I wouldn't mind trying them with the money-back guarantee, though if they twiddle their thumbs and take their time getting the money back to the purchaser, that sucks.

I've heard a lot of negative things about similar products in the past, but I'd like to see for myself.
