Just checked my email.My friend Gary says sharing the Prius trailer build on EcoModder.com is okay and he'll want to lean on as many of us as necessary.
Gary is going to do a 'shorty',only long enough to complete the 'Template' boat-tail without any consideration for carrying capacity.
He does regular I-25 runs between Colorado Springs and Denver and is indicating around 54 mpg with the naked car.So that will be the figure to beat.
I've been working 7-day weeks since November and have some savings built up to finance my return to the Viking project for World of Speed in Sept..
