One of our research associates installed the wing on the roof of his Lincoln Town car using a luggage rack, which allowed the wing to hang over the rear window by 6-inches. He claimed his mileage improved from 17-mpg to 56-mpg.
Unforunately, my "research associate" was unable to deliver his "results" due to his walking in front of a moving bullet. Terrible story.
