I want aerohead to chime in. Years ago he told me that I couldn't slide the template back on my wagon to "fit the template".
I know; I was waiting for him too but he endorsed #332 so I figured "he has spoken". Don't know why he would have said not to slide it back.

I'll chime in on the Limo Template: It would gain just a wee bit of drag due to the increased skin friction from the increased surface area.

P.S. And in YAW the limo will have a bit more "frontal" area.
