right, my friend told me that if you leave the car at a standstill with only the back windows open for 45 minutes you can increase your MPG by around 5 MPG, is this true?



What a load of balls!!! I hear it was only if the car was at standstill with the back windows AND the bonnet open for 50 minutes can increase your MPG by around 5 MPG...honestly, some people :P

cheers mate, one of my other mates said it was rubbish, obviously it's true though

I hear if you play the spice girl really loud with your windows open, while taking out the rear bench...

It looks really stupid :lol:

I think that right?

omg micheal please :unsure::unsure:

Yes it true, I know its sounds unbelievable but its true… ;)

just leave your back windows open for 45 minutes and some tow rag will nick your stereo, CD collection, seats and anything else left in the car thus saving weight so the car will gain more mpg.

Give it a try :) :) :)

A girl asked a guy if he thought she was pretty and he said no. She

asked him if he would want to be with her forever and he said no. She

then asked him if she were to leave would he cry, and once again he

replied with a no. She had heard enough. As she walked away,tears

streaming down her face the boy grabbed her arm and ......said You're not pretty you're... See More

beautiful. I don'twant to be with you forever. I NEED to be with you

forever. And I wouldn't cry if you walked away...I'd die... ♥♥ ~~THE

END~~♥♥.......Isn't that sweet? Tonight at midnight your true love

will realize they like you. Something good will happen to you at

1:00-4:00pm tomorrow, it could be anywhere on IM or email, outside of

school,anywhere! Get ready for the biggest shock of your life. If you

break this chain letter you will be cursed with 10 relationship

problemsforthe next ten years. If you post this to 15 pages in 15

minutes and also open your cars rear windows 45 minutest before you set off you a journey, you're safe and your fuel economy will improve by 5 mpg.

andrew- that's properly sad lol

Michael, do you know that the word 'Gullible' isn't in the dictionary?......... lol

ive never heard such tosh. i thought it was if you drive with no windows, it reduces drag and therefore gives you better economy
