Appreciate the compliment Cd. One cannot judge their own work. Actually, a friend of mine here locally did some extensive CFD testing on the cargo box. Some simulations were showing as much as a 24% reduction in Cd with the Aerolid / cargo carrier combination. The preliminary road tests are backing up what the computational fluid dynamics calculated.

Sorry basjoos, not meaning to highjack your thread but this cargo carrier seems to be quite aerodynamic.
