FYI for all Young Snowbirds readers: Road Trip calendars for 2011 are now available on my site. I had so many images and requests to have them that I have created a calendar of some of my favorites from the road. You can see all the images in the calendar and order one on my photography blog at: http://www.herviewphotography.com/2010/09/30/road-trip-2011-calendars.html

Like these photos, too, Darlene!

PS Leave the cats at one of the RV parks and pick them up on the way home in the spring! : )

Understood Dave. I’m not sure I’ll ever know “for sure”, but these are not just ordinary magnets. They’re a special design and I’ve noticed improvements on both my Jeep and our Topaz without having to account for any loosing up.

The magnet part is just the delivery device for the science behind them.

Remember that most RV’s will get better mileage the farther they go.(up to a point) As things start to loosen up, (that haven’t moved for most of a year) things start moving more freely. Resistance lowers, and mileage goes up.

The guy that drove my race car down to Boise said that the mileage went from about 8 to 12MPG. That’s for a 1 ton big block carburated Dodge chassis with a sleeper and a racecar on the sloped deck. He was 13,000 lb rolling down the road. That’s a 50% increase without any magnets. I don’t know anything empirical with the use of magnets near a fuel line, but II’m suspecting it’s coincidental. But, I could be wrong.
