Im probably one of the few that got to hypermile with a boat tail in a funeral procession. Mileage dipped to 51 behind a two footed stop-go driver. Got to go through lots of red lights being second to last in line. Mileage was only 53 mpg by the time we got home due to traffic jam on the tollway too. Talk to a fellah at the service that owns a trucking company, he said aero attachments weigh too much, he's a heavy hauler and it would reduce his payload. He gets 6 mpg.
