Sell My Used Car

Q.How does it feel to believe the oil and car companies? I know if I owned an oil company I would definitely want my sales to drop 25% so I can make my stockholders happy. Ditto with the auto industry. More efficient cars means less sales. Unless you try it don't make foolish statements about a subject you know zilch about and take, feeblemindedly, what some other know-not says. I tried it and used it with some success. Many skeptics just go along with whatever is PC. (Politically Correct) Like I said before?It worked for me with no problems. If you never used acetone (except for your nail polish remover) how can you make accurate judgment statement?

A.If I owned a small oil company and I wanted my sales to increase I'd jump on this. If I was in the government, I'd jump on it. If I ran a car company I'd jump on it (assuming it worked). Exactly why would better gas mileage mean fewer car sales? It might reduce the sales of gasoline, but why would it decrease the sales of cars? At least I know that drawing a conclusion based on a couple of tank fulls of gas is foolish. There are too many variable for you to make the sort of extreme claims you are making. Your statement about "filling up to the first click" was a clear indication that you weren't even trying to conduct a careful experiment. Bogus data collection = bogus conclusions. At least run the test over a few thousand miles (assuming the few thousand miles don't include something like a long vacation trip). I keep detailed gas mileage records for all of my vehicles. I've had 25% differences in mileage between tank fulls without making any changes. You need to average your results over at least 3 tank fulls to reduce the errors associated with just filling the tank - and this is assuming there are no radical differences in your driving pattern, driving conditions, or the fuel formulations over the measurement periods.
