A man named Roy Patton, who is the Director of Solid Waste for Harvey County, Kansas is saving taxpayers money by installing a run your car on water generator in one of the county’s trucks. The HHO generator is installed in a 2005 Dodge pickup truck and has increased city mileage from 13.3 mpg to 18.6 mpg.

At first, Patton bought a run your car on water eBook such as those advertised on this site. But, when he calculated the time it would take to build a hydrogen generator from scratch, on the clock, the decided to buy an online kit.

Patton also got lucky with his run your car on water unit as he didn’t have to adjust the MAP, MAF or O2 sensors as is common with most post-1996 vehicles. Right out of the box the HHO generator started saving money and he estimates that with 13 gasoline refills the run your car on water device will have paid for itself.

The gas mileage savings is also impressive when the Dodge truck is hauling a load of waste products. For instance with a full load, Patton estimates the truck usually gets between 6 and 8 mpg, but with the hydrogen gas saver the number goes up to 13 mpg.

Patton installed the unit in June along with a quart of water and is still waiting for the H2O to get low enough to need a refill.
