Saving gas

Mythbusters proved dimpling a car like a golf ball saves 11% gas. I
don't even see anything like that, not even in the super gas saving
vehicles. How about airplanes as well?

How about those cars that get 'ball peen hammered' by golf ball size
hail stones.Do they save gas? That guy who wears that Beret is the only
guy on Mythbusters who has any sense, in my opinion.

I'd watch and enjoy that show, if those two didn't make me so nauseous.

Put stones on your lawn.
Park the car near the lawn.
Take your lawnmower and aim the output at the car.

Let us know how it works.

I clicked on the weather channel for a few minutes.Yesterday in
Charlotte,North Carolina area, hailstones, some of them the size of
baseballs, some of them about the size of grapefruit.
saving gas? Some of those cars probally won't even running.

My brother was playing golf and his grand prix had major denting from
hail.
One of those dent places made it look like new for a decent price.
