But it would be hell for solo highway trips . . 28-mpg here we come!!

I'm liking that idea!! alot!
Never even thought of it but you got the gears turning even for this one.
It would be easy enough to use something similar to the hitch rack deals with an aluminum frame covered in .040 take it off when I need to tow!I think I know what I'll be doing in the spring!
