We were looking at my Dad's Prius and discussing where the aero mods would be mounted when he got his new car. I told him that the higher mileage he sees while drafting another vehicle is the potential increased mileage he could get via aeromods, so he was planning to test this with my Dad's Prius the next time he drove it. It will be interesting to see if he follows through on this.
I assume if he plans to buy outright he has the money to do some pretty professional aeromods, right? Like, colour-matched sheet metal etc etc stuff? That would indeed be awesome. Instead of doing plug in, invest in aero?
