Ok, so I've been a Ecomodder lurker for some time now an all I have really done is adjust the nut behind the wheel. now I'm commuting to and from college (15 miles twice a day) four days a week an my budget is tight... Fine I'm cheap an I've been thinking about a few mods for my vehicle a Toyota Pickup, 4 cylinder, 5 speed. Its my baby!
I've gotten up to 30 Mpg highway on long trips, but back to mods. I know that the most beneficial mods are in the back like a aero bed cover, an boat tails. but they are not in the budget right now. So I've been thinking I should try a set of rear wheel skirts an track my tank to tank mpg to see improvements. What should I make them out of? how should I attach them? I've been thinking I should make a cardboard prototype an use duct-tape. But I'm also concerned about looks too, so I was thinking of painting, but if I'm going to do that why not do it right... Right?
