I agree with Paul - Looks like snake oil to me. I use an AmsOil product (PI) that does similar things as Techron. I use about 6 oz per tank every 3,000 miles. Top tier fuels (e.g. Shell) are also a very good thing. Best highway mileage I've seen is 32 mpg, but typically we get closer to 28. 20 mpg is typical around town. Probably average for an Aero with Auto. Additive claims for improved mileage are difficult - way too many other variables. I find that ambient temperature (higher), load (lower), and speed consistency (use the cruise) are the greatest contributors to improved fuel efficiency.
