Anything else will take much longer to pay off (if ever) unless you get it for a steal. Most of them are made to look "cool", not for function.
Can you really get 600k miles out of that car? Rust will likely take it before then unless you're driving 50k miles a year. Factor in the auto tranny and you'll likely end up spending more by keeping it that long vs buying a new beater every few years. |
I do drive around 50k a year, and I'm not looking to add it specifically for mpg, I'm just making sure this isn't going to lower my MPG, even if it doesn't increase my MPG I still want it. This mod is for looks, nothing more.
To be honest, I got pillar gauges specifically for the look factor. I spend so much time in my darn car I want it to look 'cool' to me and still get good gas mileage.
Seeing the posts above, if a wing no matter what style I get will lower mpg I'll just leave it out.
Oh also about rust, I live in the desert, it hardly ever rains here.
