So it was calm enough today to try the topper in the up position, while hauling the trailer... (see earlier photos). Results: wow. Increased drivability... i now have from 80 to 100 +km/h in OD and locked, where normally it 85 to 95. To me this says more aerodynamic, less drag. It sure makes it easier to pull. Should be even more slippery with the triangle sides and a higher position. Stoaked!
a guy at the dump asked me how much for a cap and wheel skirts... hmmmmn?!
