I started with weight reduction and now am moving over to Aero Mods.
My commute is 5.5miles and 22 stoplights so I never get going fast enough for aero to be low hanging fruit. Lightweighting is the low hanging fruit for me.

Remove Passenger seat/back seat. Remove Glove box. Remove P/S remove A/C? Remove spare tire / jack and replace with can of flat fixxer.

Now I'm starting on aero (Grill block first) and looking at rear wheel skirts.
