Another day, another good commute. Today I got 67.9 mpg to work, 20F ambient. I had lots of opportunities to coast on this trip. I think that helped as well as my latest mod. Yes, its a grill block, a quick and dirty one.
Its really nothing fancy, and I'm not even sure how long it'll last. I had some cardboard and zip ties kicking around.
I couldn't find an easy way to flush mount it to the front of the grill (mk2 will have that), so I just cut it and zip tied it to the back. It pretty much blocks the entire lower grill opening. The upper is still open.
All buttoned up in daylight ready for this morning's commute.
I noticed in one spot today that it seemed to coast a bit farther, which is quite good considering the temperature. Warm up time didn't seem to be effected too much sadly. Adding an upper grill block will help that I'd imagine.
