If you only run with a parachute, you won't know the difference without it.
If you run 35k with a parachute, you will spend a lot more energy- but not know the difference. As mentioned, it will make a serious difference. Adding so much frontal area while screwing up the already lacking aero shape will 100%, guarantee poorer results than stock, while the rear trailer hitch will help fill in the void at the rear without doing a boat tail, help spread the weight distribution, and not negatively influence MPG.
But, again, if I only ever pushed a car up hill, I'd never know how much easier it is to push it down hill- so your choice is yours, and you may not regret it, but if you do ABA testing you will see the difference.
