It sounds like it tells you when you step on the gas to hard................

Green=good
Yellow=ok
Red=Al Gore is going to get you

From the web site,

8ECO9000 Each $87.00

Additionally, have red, amber, and green lights that indicated how well you are doing on keeping the vehicle in the most fuel friendly driving mode.

It's just a MPG gauge. It doesn't actually do anything.

I don't think it's worth the $87 unless it gives a "range" for the fuel tank too.
