Thanked 1 Time in 1 Post
Thanks for doing the math and offering some hope for the 11 mpg goal. The roof has 2 large AC units, 2 satelitte dishes, 2 crank out air vents, a stove vent, a dryer vent , a ladder and a skylight. The sides have 4 awnings w/folding support poles. There are 2 large rear view mirrors. There are lots of joints and seams that abruptly protude 3/8 of an inch. I will take it out this weekend and gets some data on coast down times. Then I will start taking things off. If I can get 11 or 12 mpg I am willing to take everything off that does not affect safety. Also I am happy to drive 55 mph to get to the 12 mpg target. Thanks again for the info and ideas.
Randy
