- Fill up your car or truck in the morning when the
temperature is still cool. All service stations have their storag
e tanks buried below ground; and the colder the ground, the denser the gasoline. When it gets warmer gasoline expands, so if you're filling up in the afternoon or in the evening, what should be a gallon is not exactly a gallon.
- Fill up when your gas tank is half-full, because the more gas you have in your tank the less air there is and gasoline evaporates rapidly, especially when it's warm.
- If you look at the trigger you'll see that it has three delivery settings: slow, medium and high. You should be pumping at the slow setting, thereby minimizing vapors created while you are pumping. Hoses at the pump are corrugated; the corrugations act as a return path for vapor recovery from gas that already has been metered. If you are pumping at the high setting, the agitated gasoline contains more vapor, which is being sucked back into the underground tank, so you're getting less gas for your money
The kit consists of two hybrid electric motors with rare earth permanent magnets that are mounted on the outside of the vehicle, which are tied to a 72V 120Ah Deep Cycle Lead Acid battery pack on the inside. According to Poulsen, once installed, the system effectively turns a front-wheel drive car into an all-wheel drive car, and results in a driving "effect" that is " equivalent to freewheeling down a 3% grade," with the accelerator needing to be depressed less or not at all to keep the car moving
Poulsen intends to make its kit available to the general public in the not to distant future, and for the relatively bargain price of $3,300, no less (add an extra $600 to that if you don't think you're up to installing it yourself).
The Federal Reserve pumped $41 billion into the U.S. financial system Thursday - one of its largest cash infusions ever!

Hopefully you are investing in commodities (things that move up and down based on supply and demand rather than how well some grey haired man is running a corporation).
Oil is a commodity that is on an upward trend. But what is the outlook for oil going forward?
- OPEC would be cheating on their quotas if they had excess oil to pump
- Oil is still abundant, but it is in the form of shale and oil sands – which is costly to process
- The world is overly dependent on oil from increasingly dangerous places (did you know that Turkey and the Kurds in northern Iraq are fighting?)
- India auto ownership is currently 7 per 1000 people
- China auto ownership is currently 1 per 130 people
- Alternatives like Ethanol are in a which came first, the chicken (E 85 vehicles) or the egg (fueling stations) battle
