I say go to town on weight reduction, if you have hills, it makes a big difference! But don't sacrifice aerodynamics in the process. A camper top sounds worse than the stock rear. |
Sheeit, here in the rust belt most everything over 10 years old has rust. They aren't dangerous- you just have to figure out how you're gonna attach the new metal.
Rabbits are like Vegas around here- haven't seen one on the roads in decades. I sure as hell wouldn't hack up a nice one, especially if the hack is likely to gain me 1 mpg... or less.
