Summary Tadger Group International and Monro
Muffler/Brake collaborated to demonstrate the
Tadger in-line fuel economy improvement
technology. This testing program was an
extension to the original test completed in
January 2005. This trial used a larger sample
size of 68 vehicles from the Mr. Tire locations
in Maryland. The test vehicles were equipped
with the Tadger technology, run under normal
operating conditions making deliveries and both
the before Tadger and with Tadger mileage was
tracked using the Monro Fuel Card system. Not
all stores tracked their mileage however we were
able to capture data for 43 stores. The tests on
forty-three different vehicles indicated across
the board improvements in fuel economy.

Discussion Conclusion
The purpose of this portion of the test program
was to validate the results from the original
test by using a larger sample size.   A total of
43 vehicles were accurately monitored with and
without the Tadger product installed. The
results of this test program validated the
original conclusion that the Tadger is effective
in improving fuel economy.
