There was a segment on the news which I cannot refer to you, but the reporter was interviewing this older couple who purchased a small honda. T;hey took the car out for a weekend drive to see if they would like it. The older couple noticed that the gas guage was not changing. It was on full the whole weekend. When they went to return the vehicle, they spent a total of $1.86 in fuel cost. The older couple went back to the dealership and was going to close the sale papers when the woman noticed two men in black looking under the hood of their new car. They grabbed a small devise and ran off in a dark colored surburban. Since that time the milage was back to 28 mpg's.
The dealer did some research on where the car came from. The vehicle was part of a goverment experment on fuel econemony There were twelve other vehicoles that were part of the experiment, but this one that the couple had, the feds forgot to take off the devise that helped in getting un heard of milage.
