I'm glad you are offering up lots of suggestions in the original post. Shows you are really thinking about this.

For me anyway, much of ecomodding is about reducing the total cost of ownership of the vehicle. Saving fuel has it's own thrill and make no mistake, I love to prototype and experiment when I can. Simplicity is a cornerstone to good design, it is easy to conceive of theoretically simple ideas but implementation becomes complex and expensive. I guess I'm just saying to select the simplest ideas first and progress from there.

Have you started to decide which of the ideas you or others suggested you would like to try first? See also your previous thread.
