A new revolutionary tire from Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company’s with the power to reduce fuel consumption is finally introduced. Named the Fuel Max Technology, these tires during a test conducted by Society of Automotive Engineers showed a relative 8 percent increase in fuel economy with standard tires in controlled environment and a 4 percent gain in normal road conditions.
On further calculation, with the use of these tires more than $2,000 per year in reduced fuel costs can be achieved assuming that trucks drive more than 100,000 miles per year.
These tires are available in three new sets: steer, drive and trailer versions.

Recently, I got the rare opportunity to interview the adept designer Leonid Lucenko who is a Venezuelan lad. Born on 24th August 1983, Leonid came up with the unique concept of SPIRIT- an electric vehicle that is emission free, but the fact that renders this concept an element of uniqueness is that this EV is a cross between a bike and a car.
