How About

What if a large electro-magnet was mouned just behind your grille block? Could you engine off coast being pulled by the car in front of you, using occasional braking to keep from hitting him?

The added rolling resistance would be offset by the slightly better aerodynamics the leader gets by you filling the space where his wake would be.
