only a psychologist could figure out some automobile owners have a tendency to go off the deep end a little when it comes to the subject of gas mileage in one case we heard of recently a driver re peatedly amazed his dealer with stories that he was getting 40 miles per gallon and better on a model that averaged 18 since this went on for months the dealer was beginning to believe his story that the manufacturer must have installed a new secret econ omy device in the car as an experiment the dealer passed the story on to the factory representative and shortly thereafter a factory man called at the motorists home to interview him it happened that he was out at the time and the factory man talked to his wife who told him confidentially that she sometimes used the car in her husbands absence and refilled the tank so he wouldnt be any the wiser then there was the opposite type of case where a motorist claimed continually that all he could get was 5 miles per gallon from his new car a little detective work revealed that his teenage son dis connected the speedometer for the same reason the housewife put gas in the tank seriously though if you feel that your gas mile age leaves something to be desired many conditions could cause it have your dealer give it a thorough checkout if adjustments are required he can make them if not youll at least relieve your mind markham
