He's seeing 25-mpg at 55-mph.
He's made a deal with bondo for an 'Aerolid' bed cover and later,one of bondo's foldable tailgate boat tails.
John thinks he might see 28-mpg on regular unleaded gas.This would equal the RAM 1500 Diesel.
It could get better from there.Depending.
Honda's got some catching up to do,but if they ever do a 1st-gen CRX HF,or 1st-gen Insight-like pickup,the truck industry will be wallowing in their own tears.Honda has the technical chops.It's not about technological feasibility.

Tell him to start a page here! I very much want to see real world numbers for Bondo's lid. A 12% improvement over stock would be awesome.
