I love your spirit. It's great to accomplish what people say can't be accomplished.

With hypermiling it's a hundred tiny things eventually adding up to big improvements.

If you're nimble enough to jump inside you can remove the big pipe footstep things to save some weight.

You can also shorten the stalks for the mirrors, or maybe replace them with adjustable stalks so you can have them in close unless towing.

You can probably get partial side skirts installed in the back wheel wells pretty easily.

If you get a ScanGauge II to monitor water temp you can partially block the grill in an aerodynamic fashion. SG can also help with other aspects of hypermiling.
