Red face 05 MagnumSXT

Hey, I'm a newbie and I wanted to ask a few questions.
I've heard of the HHO hook up, does it work?
I know changing my driving habits is a great way to save gas, but, I want an alternate fuel or something because changing my driving habits isn't going to happen. I have somewhat, but I like to drive. My tires are always inflated to the max; I clean my air filter every time I change my low weight synthetic oil. My car has nothing extra in it and I get about 26 on the highway and about 19 in the city. I want to do better.
I just joined so I haven't looked through all the threads yet, forgive me, so does anyone have any Ideas? Does the water mixture work? (HHO)

Thanks everyone, I look forward to talking with you folks.

It's possible to adjust your driving habits for economy without having to slow down much or lose your excitement. For example, not braking for turns...that's fun and saves gas. Pulse & Glide means getting up to a higher speed before coasting down.

There are few modifications that work and are cost-effective. Besides tire pressure, there are some DIY aerodynamic mods and a warm air intake works for many people.

The HHO concept gets a HUGE amount of attention, but with all that attention it repeatedly fails to produce results. Feel free to try it, but don't hang your hat on expecting results from it.
