Sounds like the National Enquirer to me. I suspect he has Elvis working with him and Amelia Airhart flying him around....

I recently read an article in a reputable magazine claiming cars can and will get up to 300mpg of gasoline. This is 100% true, a car will travel 300 miles on a gallon of gas, but their math/thinking was unique.

This 300mpg was on a plug in hybrid using E85 fuel. The 300 miles consumed several KWH of electricy and gallons of ethanol, but sure enough only a single gallon of gasoline! LOL

How many of these tinkerers make the same oversights. Change of driving techniques, other modifications-like tune-ups, tire air pressure, monitor engine performance and emissions...
