I'm glad you all liked it. Even though we EcoModders already knew most of this, it was nice to see it in a popular automotive magazine. Hopefully it'll get someone thinking. I did like how Hans stressed that the wheelwells are an aerodynamic mess and that so far they are a black hole as far as research is concerned. This is all the more reason to skirt them off and paste a "Do not touch" sticker I also hope that closeable grilles will become more popular, now that a major car maker uses them (and not just some fuelsipping freaks ).
