yup 29 is good when thinking that i started with 23 mpg initially. suddenly the magical 30 mpg barrier doesn't seem as unreachable anymore, and there is so much more to improve. i want to delete my mudflaps and make horizontal flaps along the body to catch the mud while not catching air. and then i really want a belly pan, but somehow it scares me. the underside is so damn complex and irregular compared to a car, plus the suspensions can move alot more and i must keep highest ground clearance. the good side is that it has a true chassis that forms a good and solid base to build upon, but it's gonna be a mindbreaker anyway.
