Today as i pulled into the parking lot at work i saw a truck with one door open flailing into the lane over and closed again! He mustve just pulled out of the Pricechopper loading dock and forgot to lock it. I wouldnt want to be behind that when soup cans start falling into the road. Or maybe i would, as in a recent news story around here about $200,000 falling from a moving money car.
Okay, how much of a benefit do you get from drafting car, as opposed to being being drafted by a tail-gater? The most gas saving mod appears to be a boat tail, so would you benefit more by having that low pressure behind your car being filled by a tailgater? Or is it best to draft behind a car? Theoretically speaking of course.
