well put...buys a v6 fbody dumps in extra weight for the stereo then wants mpg? comon man think about this $260.90 for 20% fuel savings.
If you drive say 1000 miles a month at 25 mpg currently=40 gallons of gas per month at $2.80=$112.00
Lets say with your hydrogen thingamabobber you drive that same 1000 miles at 30mpg which is roughly a 20% increase=33.33gal per month X $2.80=$93.32 which is a savings of a whopping $18.68 per month of savings. But lets say you went another route & put that $260.90 into an ing direct savings account at 4.15% interest you'd have $271.73 in 12 months whereas the hydropooper would've only recouped $224.16 of that $260.90 initial investment in 12 months. In the end it would probably take you close to 15 months to get back your initial investment plus the interest you could've made(from only a simple savings account) I wont even go into what you could've made through an IRA or common stock.
