Hi,

I've rebuilt the wheel skirts out of dark blue Coroplast -- I'm pleased with how they came out. Pictures soon, and data after that.

I'm not optimistic that the Airtabs are helping -- in fact, it seems like they are hurting my MPG. I don't know (yet) for sure, because it rained buckets (so I had to use A/C) and I've had four people in the car for much of my recent driving. But, after my commute to work this morning, I was only able to raise the average from 39.7 to 41.1mpg. Considering that I have averaged 45+ for the past 11 tankfuls, and my worst tank recently was 42+ -- I'm not holding my breath.
