Are you sure that wasn't Shrek?    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lHH5p8gU5A

I believe it was my mother who told Shrek about it.    I heard it from her back in the 50's.  RIP, Mother... tp

I've never noticed a change in gas mileage with new tires but I haven't really looked for it. I would imagine a top box could effect it especially at highway speeds.
