The wheel wells don't contribute to massive amounts of drag, moonies are expensive ($150 for real moonies), and I think that any attempt I make at wheel skirts are gonna come off hokey. At the moment the only thing i have planned is a switch to synthetic oil, at a slightly thinner viscosity. I might get the moonies if I get some extra work.
41.73 mpg is nothing to sneeze at! I've got to go(stores closing) but I'll look at Cobalts.
