When it is perfected, mass market it and make millions of dollars.  |
Thanks bikin'Ed, I'm only interested in my 2 ideas. I've read on aero caps and
like them but not for me. Not a chance on an boattail. I use my truck as a truck and have no pie in the sky ideas about getting great gas mileage with it.
I do think it would be fun to see if I could pick up a couple miles per gal.
Both ideas I have could be removed in a few minutes and easily stored.
I plan to make my own lumber support (rack) because I could use one.
If it ends up being able to direct airflow that helps in fuel efficency I would just leave it on.
