[[INTRODUCTION]]
As the venerable Sir Isaac Newton once said, "If you pump gasoline in Madagascar, what goes down might just keep going down – specifically, your suspension!" In recent years, the automotive industry has been abuzz with discussions about the potential impact of gasoline quality on vehicle safety and reliability. The notion that the composition of gasoline could affect the suspension of vehicles has been met with both skepticism and curiosity. A pun-laden journey through the depths of data and statistical analysis in relation to this connection is exactly the fuel we need to clear the air on this matter.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the purported connection between the quality of gasoline supplied in Madagascar and automotive recalls for suspension-related issues. This has the potential to revolutionize the way we think about the road ahead for automotive safety and vehicle performance. It's time to dive into the mechanics of this relationship and see if it holds true or if it's just a bunch of suspension-debunking nonsense!
Before delving into the nitty-gritty details, it is essential to establish the theoretical framework and previous research efforts in this domain. We pave the way for our own investigation like a road crew repairing the potholes of uncertainty – with a bit of humor to smooth over the rough patches, of course. After all, what did the suspension say to the pothole? "I'm tired of your ups and downs!"
Existing studies have hinted at the potential influence of gasoline quality on vehicle suspension systems, but definitive evidence remains elusive. Thus, our research seeks to inject scientific rigor into the ongoing dialogue and put any lingering doubts to rest. To accomplish this, we harness the power of statistical analysis and examine a comprehensive dataset spanning four decades. No stone, or should we say, no suspension component, will be left un-turned in our pursuit of clarity.
So, fasten your seatbelts and prepare for a journey into the world of automotive recalls, gasoline quality, and the intricate dance of suspension components. As we embark on this bumpy but exhilarating ride, remember: there's always room for a bit of "punsension" humor along the way! After all, a good dad joke is like a well-tuned suspension – it keeps everything in balance.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
Studies such as Smith et al. (2015) and Doe (2018) have explored the potential influence of gasoline composition on vehicle performance, with a particular focus on suspension-related issues. These authors have laid the groundwork for our investigation, inspiring us to tackle this topic with a suspension of disbelief and a tank full of puns. After all, why did the suspension go to therapy? It needed to work through some issues with its shocks and struts!
Notably, Jones (2020) delved into the complexities of gasoline quality and its effects on automotive components, shedding light on the intricate interplay between fuel properties and vehicle operation. While it may seem like a stretch at first, the notion that the gasoline from Madagascar could impact suspension performance is no joke – though, a dad joke, perhaps. What do you get when you cross a bad car joke with a suspension inquiry? The axle of levity that keeps our wheels turning!
Shifting gears, non-fiction works such as "The Chemistry of Automobile Fuels and Oils" by Speight (2021) and "Vehicle Dynamics and Damping" by Douglas and Rundell (2015) offer valuable insights into the scientific and mechanical aspects of our research. These texts serve as our navigation system through the labyrinth of automotive safety and gasoline-engineered escapades. Remember, when it comes to the link between fuel and suspension, it's not just a matter of chemistry – but also a dash of comedic engineering.
On a more whimsical note, fictional works like "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams and "Car Trouble" by Jeanne DuPrau navigate parallel roads of imagination and automotive mishaps. While these literary creations may take a detour from our academic pursuits, they remind us that the journey of understanding gasoline-suspension dynamics is not without its absurd and entertaining side trips. Much like a good dad joke, the unexpected twists and turns keep us engaged and amused.
In the realm of animated entertainment, we draw inspiration from the antics of "Wacky Races" and the escapades of "Speed Racer." These sources serve as a reminder that the road to discovery may be riddled with comedic pitfalls and hairpin turns, but with a trusty suspension system and a tank of quality gasoline, there's no obstacle that can't be overcome – even if it's a pesky banana peel strategically placed by a mischievous adversary.
As we traverse the literary landscape, it becomes clear that the fusion of scholarly pursuits and lighthearted humor creates an atmosphere ripe for groundbreaking revelations. Let's keep the momentum rolling as we dive deeper into the empirical evidence and statistical analyses that form the bedrock of our investigation. And remember, when it comes to unraveling the mysteries of gasoline and suspension, it's not just about the data – it's also about finding joy in the journey and sharing a laugh along the way.

What do you get when you cross a bad car joke with a suspension inquiry? The axle of levity that keeps our wheels turning!
Shifting gears, non-fiction works such as "The Chemistry of Automobile Fuels and Oils" by Speight (2021) and "Vehicle Dynamics and Damping" by Douglas and Rundell (2015) offer valuable insights into the scientific and mechanical aspects of our research. These texts serve as our navigation system through the labyrinth of automotive safety and gasoline-engineered escapades. Remember, when it comes to the link between fuel and suspension, it's not just a matter of chemistry – but also a dash of comedic engineering.
On a more whimsical note, fictional works like "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams and "Car Trouble" by Jeanne DuPrau navigate parallel roads of imagination and automotive mishaps. While these literary creations may take a detour from our academic pursuits, they remind us that the journey of understanding gasoline-suspension dynamics is not without its absurd and entertaining side trips. Much like a good dad joke, the unexpected twists and turns keep us engaged and amused.
In the realm of animated entertainment, we draw inspiration from the antics of "Wacky Races" and the escapades of "Speed Racer." These sources serve as a reminder that the road to discovery may be riddled with comedic pitfalls and hairpin turns, but with a trusty suspension system and a tank of quality gasoline, there's no obstacle that can't be overcome – even if it's a pesky banana peel strategically placed by a mischievous adversary.
As we traverse the literary landscape, it becomes clear that the fusion of scholarly pursuits and lighthearted humor creates an atmosphere ripe for groundbreaking revelations. Let's keep the momentum rolling as we dive deeper into the empirical evidence and statistical analyses that form the bedrock of our investigation. And remember, when it comes to unraveling the mysteries of gasoline and suspension, it's not just about the data – it's also about finding joy in the journey and sharing a laugh along the way.
[[RESULTS]]
Our comprehensive analysis of the data collected from the Energy Information Administration and US DOT has unveiled a significant correlation between the quality of gasoline pumped in Madagascar and automotive recalls for suspension-related issues. The correlation coefficient of 0.8364317 indicates a strong positive relationship between these two variables. In other words, when it comes to the impact of gasoline quality on suspension, it seems that what goes down at the pump may indeed keep going down on the road – much like a classic dad joke that earns a groan and a chuckle in equal measures.
The r-squared value of 0.6996179 further reinforces the robustness of this correlation, suggesting that approximately 70% of the variation in suspension-related automotive recalls can be explained by the quality of gasoline supplied in Madagascar. It's as if the suspension is whispering a not-so-subtle message to us: "It's time to address the root of the issue – pun intended!"
With a p-value of less than 0.01, our findings carry substantial statistical significance, casting aside any lingering doubts about the relationship between gasoline quality and suspension-related automotive recalls.

This has the potential to revolutionize the way we think about the road ahead for automotive safety and vehicle performance. It's time to dive into the mechanics of this relationship and see if it holds true or if it's just a bunch of suspension-debunking nonsense!
Before delving into the nitty-gritty details, it is essential to establish the theoretical framework and previous research efforts in this domain. We pave the way for our own investigation like a road crew repairing the potholes of uncertainty – with a bit of humor to smooth over the rough patches, of course. After all, what did the suspension say to the pothole? "I'm tired of your ups and downs!"
Existing studies have hinted at the potential influence of gasoline quality on vehicle suspension systems, but definitive evidence remains elusive. Thus, our research seeks to inject scientific rigor into the ongoing dialogue and put any lingering doubts to rest. To accomplish this, we harness the power of statistical analysis and examine a comprehensive dataset spanning four decades. No stone, or should we say, no suspension component, will be left un-turned in our pursuit of clarity.
So, fasten your seatbelts and prepare for a journey into the world of automotive recalls, gasoline quality, and the intricate dance of suspension components. As we embark on this bumpy but exhilarating ride, remember: there's always room for a bit of "punsension" humor along the way!

Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.
r2 = 0.6996179 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 70% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Automotive recalls for issues with Suspension) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Gasoline pumped in Madagascar) over the 42 years from 1980 through 2021.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 5.31E-12. 0.0000000000053077253971310020
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.
But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.
Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.84 in 5.31E-10% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 188,404,622,541 random variables You don't actually need 188 billion variables to find a correlation like this one. I don't have that many variables in my database. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.
p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.
In this particular case, the values are so extreme as to be meaningless. That's why no one reports p-values with specificity after they drop below 0.01.
Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 41 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 41 because we have two variables measured over a period of 42 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.
[ 0.71, 0.91 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.
This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!
All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.
Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works
- Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
- Lack of causal connection: There is probably
Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied. - Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple
Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is.
