Talk to him more and you will see that he actually loves himself for buying them. He appreciate his own idea and alleged brainpower, not the product indeed.
All the people buying snake oil are like that - most of them know that the products don't deliver promised mpg improvement, but still recommend them to others.
They were cheated by their own mothers the whole childhood to came to be like that later on. To be liars and idiots and buy AIRTABS and Turdblows to feel good.

One thing about the air tabs is the are relatively cheap compared to most other products that make promises. If they only helped mpg by a tenth, they pay for themselves in a couple of months. I do know that by taking off the bug defector, doing the airtabs, and putting on low rolling resistance rubber got me about .4 better mpg. And the tires now have about 406,000 on them and I won't need to get them replaced for a couple of months. The ROI has been pretty good.

All the scam products are affordable and provide great ROI. Because people who are targeted are not too smart and don't have too much money. Turdblow 3000 d is very affordable as well. Until you realize is z piece of pipe -
It amazes me that ANYONE is still buying the Turbo 3000 d... -
What amazes me even more is that these people always seem to notice some improvement in mpg. Although, next thing I see is they have no clue about anything. Just yesterday was talking to a guy from Bronx, he showed me "turbodiesel" (thats what he called his Turdblow) and assured me he gets 8.5 mpg. On a Volvo dash computer of course. He also is buying new truck: 2007 Volvo with Volvo engine, DPF and automated tranny with 500.000 miles . Ex big fleet piece of **** for sure.
Those are the people who later cry outloud about industry being bad. So funny it's almost entertaining to talk to those individuals -
Oh yes I know he's a moron. I could pay him is going rate to tell everyone that smearing dog pop on their windshields would net then 9.5mpg and you know you would see guys doing it. And you know about 1/2 would say they saw an improvement.
What gets me is with all the billions of dollars spent by the truck mfg's to improve fuel mileage and none of them come factory with air tabs. What's that tell you?. I'm just pissed I didn't get to bottle that snake oil and sell it first. -
My last set of steers went 271k and drives 324k.
You got 271k from steer tires ??? What brand and what size mounted on what truck platform please?
( I got 325k from Dunlops on the front drives with cats eyes but never over 80k on the steer ) -
thats funny
volvo didn't have dpf on the 2007's,,, -
DPF's started on engines build after Jan 1st, 2007. He could possibly get one, even that many 2007 model year trucks still had 2006 motors
-
usx didn't get any volvo's with volvo D13 (def regen motors) until mid 2008
all the 2007 volvo's i have seen for sale have the D12 (non def motor)
