I have been running my car on water for quite a while now with a DIY hydrogen generator that I built and installed myself. If I can do this, believe me, anyone can.

Now, the fact that I am a woman has little to do with this statement. It is more the fact that I don’t have a garage full of tools and I have very little time on my hands being a working mom.

The great thing about the hydrogen generator is that the technology is so simple. You use a small amount of power from your car’s battery and through electrolysis, you separate water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen gas and then inject it into your engine’s intake along with the gas you already use and it burns more efficiently.

Water chemistry aside, this is a basic idea of how it works. You do not create pure hydrogen rather you separate the water molecule into two bonded hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom to form a gas known as HHO, or Brown’s gas.

This gas burns many times more readily than regular gas because the droplets are much, much smaller.

The technology has been around for ever too. Of course if you can build your own hydrogen generator for under $65 with parts you can find locally and with basic hand tools, what big company in their right mind would think this had economical value to develop?

And the taxes lost on reduced oil usage has kept the government from letting its good citizens know about this as well.

So it is up to us to use this technology to our advantage and cut our gas bills by 25-55%, some people are getting even more. Thousands upon thousands of people just like you and I have already built their own hydrogen generators and have turned their cars into water burning hybrids!

Want to build one yourself? Of course you do! I have a guide at my website that will show you, step by step how to make this hydrogen generator. It’s freakin awesome and the government can’t do anything about it! Go to http://MylaMadson.com/hybrid1

You hear them on the radio and TV everyday. Some have outrageous ads and sales gimmicks. “Push, pull or drag your trade in for $4000 minimum trade”, “Best price in the world!” “Best bumper to bumper warranty ever – we cover everything.” “Repo’d car sale today.” Bet you didn’t know that these ads can be and usually are very misleading and can be illegal.

According to Leslie Anderson, AAA, Misleading advertisements and deceptive marketing from car dealers has been on the rise in recent years. Car dealers, due to a struggling economy are resorting to grey market sales tactics and ads. Many of these ads are either borderline or even illegal in nature. With all the publicity in recent years of scams and illegal business activities by businesses from every state you would think most states would have toughened up their laws and started to crack down on bad car dealers. Only one state, New York, has really done anything.

There are laws already on the books that make many of these advertisements and such illegal, but few states will even look into these activities. In New York, if you run a Push, Pull or Drag sale the odds are you will get fined. The thinking behind New Yorks laws is that if you promise someone a set figure for their vehicle it should not be factored into the discount or markup of the newer, replacement vehicle. This is deceptive advertising. Yet I hear these same ads, with even higher amounts promised on the radio and TV in North Carolina and South Carolina all the time. Then there’s the matter of expressed and implied warranties.

Expressed and implied warranties are actually covered under federal laws. Every car dealer must have a federally approved warranty disclosure placed in the window. This is to show if a warranty exists and what is actually covered. This was done as there was too much discrepency in the past with car salesman blurring the line of what is really covered and what isn’t. On a recent drive from North Carolina to South Carolina I saw 11 used car dealerships that did not have these in the windows – at one we found they were in the glove compartment. When we asked the salesperson why it wasn’t in the window he said it wasn’t necessary. In New York, every car dealer you drive by or visit will have these prominently displayed.

Then you have the usual lies – car dealers advertising a repossession sale, cream puffs, etc… They will lie about the origination of cars just like in a recent Carfax ad. Oh that was just a little fender scratch (complete repaint from a 50mph accident) or new upholstery (due to a flood and complete submersion). These repossession sales, like Repo Joe, do a media Blitz and claim they have all repossessed vehicles for a great buy. When in fact they probably don’t even have one repossessed car that is for sale. Most car dealers get their cars from either trades or local auctions.

Regardless of what they claim they most likely do not know the vehicles history. You can’t even rely on Carfax 100% as many vehicles are repaired without full salvage disclosure or even any repair history. A carfax report is only as good as the information that is actually entered into the system. Before you rely on that Carfax or what the dealer says is the cars history listen to this – Tennessee attorneys Frank Watson and David McLaughlin charge that Carfax’s ads promise more than it can deliver. “Carfax fails to disclose the limitations of their database,” says Watson. “People think they have a little insurance policy on their Carfax report, and it’s just not accurate,” says McLaughlin. Carfax is an online company that searches databases for a vehicle’s history, claiming to be “your best protection against buying a used car with costly, hidden problems.” But, critics say when it comes to many accidents, online reporting companies fall short. A class-action lawsuit against Carfax claims the company doesn’t have access to police accident data in 23 states.

This article should be a wake up call to car buyers to be more on the alert to car dealer scams, lies and untruths. It should also be an alert to states from Oregon to Florida that more needs to be done to curb bad car sales tactics. Most car dealers aren’t small mom and pop organizations. They are large million or billion dollar companies that will do anything to make a dollar. Even crossing the line or blurring what is legal and what isn’t. And according to one big dealer in Charlotte, North Carolina whom didn’t want his name or dealership mentioned for obvious reasons – “its all about that bottem line and if we get caught, thats what our lawyers are for. Per another car dealer, “it’s a buyer beware market: Buyers must beware and be detectives too.”

We are not living in a totalitarian state, so why would any of us want to track our teenager’s cars? Well it seem that the popularity of fitting GPS vehicle tracking devices to our teenager’s cars is on the rise, sparked by our ever growing fear for the safety of our children.

When your teenage son or daughter first learns to drive, it is an exciting time for them, but not so for us as the parents. Typically most parents find this period particularly stressful due to the increased risk their children face when they start to drive.

A GPS tracking device fitted to a teenager’s vehicle can help reduce the risks they face in a number of ways:

1. Safety – A parent’s biggest fear when their children start to drive is that their child will drive recklessly and put themselves at risk. A young driver is far more likely to take risks on the roads than an experienced driver, and monitoring & logging speed is just one feature of these GPS devices. Statistically teenagers are far more likely to be involved in car accidents than any other sector of the population, due to their lack of driving experience and their lack of awareness of the risks involved with driving a car. When a GPS tracking device is in place, teenagers are far more likely to stick to the speed limits.

2. Cheaper Insurance – One important side-effect of keeping your teenager safer on the road is cheaper car insurance. If they drive safer they are more likely to keep a clean license, avoid accidents and benefit from reduced insurance rates.

3. Addressing Safety – Armed with the data from the GPS readout, a parent can decide what corrective measures to take, or even make the decision to withdraw driving privileges – it won’t make you a popular parent, but it might save your teenager from injuring themselves or their friends.

4. Knowing Where They Are – If your teenager has a breakdown or an accident, you can be notified immediately via the GPS system so that you can get assistance to them as soon as possible.

Most parents install GPS vehicle tracking systems in their teenager’s auto to make sure that their child is abiding by the rules of how they are supposed to drive, where they can and cannot go, and when they can and cannot drive. If you don’t want your teenager to drive on the highway for instance, or they tell you they are going to a certain friend’s house to study, the vehicles location will be logged and it is possible to check.

It might seem to some people that going to these lengths constitute a violation of an individual’s freedom, and to a large extent it does, but the fear about personal safety outweighs these fears for many parents. Certain manufacturers of GPS tracking systems promote fitting the devices covertly, due to the ease of installation and how easy they are to conceal, but just because you have this option, doesn’t make it the right thing to do.

If you talk through the risks involved with driving and being in control of an automobile, and make driving dependent on the fitting of such a device, you will reduce the risk of fallout later. After all, if you want to use the information supplied by the device to encourage your child to drive safer, at some stage you will have to admit that the device has been fitted.

The Author’s website Car Insurance For Teenagers features articles and advice about how to obtain cheaper car insurance rates for teenagers by keeping them safer while they drive.

An electric car kit is a kit that either turns a normal car into an electric car, or more typically turns it into a hybrid car. The reason why these types of cars are popular is because they are fuel efficient, reduce pollution and reduce gas expenses.

Some people have a misconception about these conversion kits – they believe that they will reduce your car’s performance. In fact, they do not effect your car’s performance because they only convert energy that would have been wasted into electricity. This is then stored for use later. So, in effect, these cars are recycling waste energy, not draining energy out of the engine.

However, one thing is clear – it can be very expensive to convert a gas powered car into a hybrid electric car, due to all the additional components that must be fitted with an electric car kit. For instance, you would need to install a secondary, electric engine into the car, alongside the gas powered engine.

A better option to the electric car kit is to try a hydrogen conversion kit. This is a modification that converts the waste energy into a chemical fuel, which is then burned together with the gasoline. This works on the same principle of using the waste energy of the car to produce more useful power, but it does not require a secondary engine to use this power. The excess electricity is instead used to separate water into flammable gases, which are immediately injected into the fuel mixture of the car, releasing more energy that the engine can use.

The conversion is very easy to do – you don’t even need to buy a conversion kit. You can make the hydrogen gas converter yourself, using cheap and easy to buy components, and installing into your engine is easy. The converter is made from cheap components that you can acquire without any. And, unlike an electric car kit, if you find that it doesn’t work for you (thousands have found that it does) you can easily remove it and revert your car to its original state.

There is a simple step by step guide that you can follow. Click on the link below to find out more.

In general maintenance works consist of cleaning, refueling, providing proper lubrication, fixing, checking, adjusting wheels and car parts. Proper maintenance is the guarantee of a long life of your vehicle. However if you want to save on car maintenance, follow these helpful tips and discover how to have it up and running for lower costs.

Tip #1. Buy a newer car.

Does it sound rather vague to you? Some new cars from a manufacturer can last for years without any repairs. It mostly depends on your driving habits indeed. Once you have a new car you can forget your mechanic’s address for a while even though regular maintenance is still required. But if you already have an old car… well, see below.

Tip #2. Get good auto insurance.

Good car insurance is the best way to save on car maintenance when it comes to breakages and failures. Try to do some research and find such car insurance which best fits your needs. When you get car insurance with a low deductible payment it will help you reduce your technical maintenance expenses considerably. If you already have auto insurance with a high deductible… hm, continue reading.

Tip #3. Do it on your own.

In case you have a mechanical breakdown, try to fix it by yourself. There are many online support services that can help you check your car and discover the fault. If you still need to take it to a repair service keep in mind that they get new car parts to change the broken ones with a high markup. Thus in some cases buying spare parts by yourself (if you know exactly what you need) will help you reduce the expenses by 4 times! Just shop around and look for better offers online.

Tip #4. Prevention is better than cure.

You can save money and prolong your car’s working capacity if you take some preventive measures. By changing oil, charging batteries in time as well as doing total check-up of your car once a month, you can help your vehicle last longer.

Tip #5. Use your car wisely.

You’ll be surprised how much you can save if you give some thought to the ways you use your car. One should stop the engine at red traffic lights and in the jams.

Tip #6. Maintain your speed level.

From my own experience I can say that when I speed up and pull up fast, it does good neither to my brakes nor my fuel economy. One should stick to some certain speed level. That way one can achieve the lowest fuel rate and save the brake pads from wearing out. Using deceleration technique to make your car come to a halt is better than applying the brake.

Tip #7. Check your tires.

Partially deflated tires do not help save money at all. First of all if there isn’t enough air in the tires they can wear out faster. Secondly underinflation increases fuel rate by 4-6% which makes you spend more fuel than usual. You can read technical characteristics and check the best tire inflation pressure for your car.

Tip #8. New spark plugs every once in a while.

Statistics show that changing old spark plugs in time cuts fuel costs down by 25-35%. Moreover new spark plugs also help improve car’s performance and capacity.

Tip #9. Wash it in time.

At first blush one could say that washing doesn’t reduce maintenance costs at all. However cleaning your car in time will help you prevent if from corrosion which is caused by accumulation of mud and dust that stay wet and stimulate corrosive wear.

Tip #10. Read the manual.

When you know your car as the back of your hand you are definitely aware of what it needs, when its engine has to be tuned-up or what oil it’s better to use. It’s always helpful to read the owner’s manual and look under the hood once in a while.

Is there a best car for your teen? Well it depends on who’s deciding, the parent or the teen. Parents tend to have different aims and priorities when it comes to buying their teen a car. Even though many say it is difficult for the teens and their parents to come to a mutual agreement, it is not impossible, especially if both the parties are willing to compromise on a few areas.

Let’s start with the teen’s preferences and what they consider in vogue today. Teenagers tend to place several other factors before safety such as the appearance and style of the car, its speed and performance and music accessories; and they also seem to lean towards the cars that are the most customizable.

What does a car mean to a teen? It reflects the teen’s freedom and character. Other than that it does the obvious of taking care of transportation.

What is it that the parents want? The first and foremost criteria for judging their teen’s car is the safety arrangements the car manufacturer provides. A low cost/ second hand car is also preferred along with a check on maintenance costs.

The cost factor – the battle between used vs. new starts here. Parents with financial problems will obviously prefer used cars but they come with drawbacks. Used cars require regular maintenance and often break down. On the other hand, insurance and taxes will be less. Many students prefer to go for a used car and later customize it to their requirements, but they tend to go overboard and the cost eventually gets out of hand. It is not recommended that teenagers are allowed heavy cars and SUV’s as they are difficult to handle in emergency conditions and require a lot of driving experience. Generally sedans are far more stable than SUV’s.

Some tips before buying – if buying a used car, make sure you have got the car properly checked by a skilled mechanic. If one fails to do so and problems arise after the purchase, only you can be held responsible as there are no warranties. Teens also naively tend to take the sellers word for everything. One must make sure that he/she uses the CARAFAX Vehicle Reports to check for reports filed in the cars name. One should also check the mileage. A car with a mileage of around fifteen thousand miles per year is considered average.

Must have safety features – it is must for the car to have airbags and seatbelts. Other than that, a new feature such as Electronic Stability Control helps in the braking. Different manufacturers use different names for this system.

Financing for teens – lets just say, leasing options are not the best for teens as they are likely to get bored with their car within a period before their loan is called off. So it is wise to avoid long term loans.

Car Insurance – insurance for teens is quite expensive as they represent a huge risk to insurance companies. It’s cheaper to add on a teen to a family package than a separate insurance program.

All teens must have knowledge about the fundamentals of driving before taking to the roads.

Car floor mats are the coverings that are used on car floors to protect the floor carpet from dust, water, insects, soil and other unwanted particles. Car floor mats also prevent snow and water from soaking through the carpet and rusting the car body. They are also a decorative accessory giving the car a tidy look. Car Floor mats are made by cutting the desired materials according to the size of the vehicle. Basic mats can be enhanced with embroidery, ribbing etc. They are then edged with matching bindings. These mats are chemically treated to reduce humidity, enhance color and maintain it .These mats are subject to a lot of wear and tear as they are in a heavy usage area. Hence, checking their condition from time to time is highly recommended.

Car floor mats are of two types. They are carpet floor mats and all weather car floor mats. Carpet floor mats are available in many colors. They protect the car floor and provide presentable interiors to the car. Rubber floor mats are more durable and tough for extreme weather conditions. Rubber car floor mats are available in standard rubber colors like black, tan and grey. Both types are washable.

Car floor mats are either custom made or semi-custom made. Custom floor mats are made to order in the exact size of the car floor. Individuals can specify the design and color and get mats made to order. Such mats will be a perfect fit for the vehicle. Semi-custom made car floor mats are not made specifically for each vehicle. They come in standard sizes and the size closest to the vehicle floor is used. They are about 90-95% accurate. They are available in the stores and individuals can choose the best option out of the mats available. It is common practice to use removable rubber mats over fixed floor mats. This helps in cleaning and maintaining the mats.

I saw somewhere on TV that the price for gas is going to double next year. Even if this is affirmation is false (I think not), it will not take long until the price doubles. The oil reserves are running low and with the wars in Iraq or other battles, we are not going to discover new reserves of oil. Another thing that we must keep in mind is that with all this oil consumption we pollute our planet in a excessive way and we or our children will be affected by this matter.

I have searched on the internet for a solution to this problem and I found out that Steve Miers, a genius that even saved a nuclear reactor from melting down, has invented some kind of hydrogen fuel car kits that can convert your car to run on hydrogen. Basically his technology reduces the consumption of gasoline and as a benefit reduces the global warming by stop polluting. His invention is 100% sure and can be used on any car in working condition. If you use hydrogen fuel car kits for your car you will be able to improve your mileage with at least 40%, that’s 40% less money spent on gas!

Why aren’t the major car brands build more hydrogen cars and less expensive?

Well, It’s a sure thing that we have the technology but it’s some kind of alliance, because the oil industry generates billions of dollars every month. Don’t you know the rich Arabians, from Dubai for example? The companies make billions too, and the government takes taxes, but we, people from all over the world must realize and stop polluting so much, because we don’t want a toxic planet.

I know hydrogen fuel car kits that can save me money and stops pollution, but how about you? Are you interested in this kind of kits for your car?

People are using Steve’s invention all over the world to spend less money on gas. I have reviewed the best step by step guides that will help you to make your own hydrogen fuel car kit.
