That's so awesome. I'm doing hypermiling techniques now and I'm getting around 34mpg so hopefully I can use some of those sweet grille blocks, airdam, and coroplast wheel covers you've used to squish me above the 40 mark! I'm also going to remove the exterior rearview mirrors because Alabama law only requires a mirror that allows a view of 200' of highway behind the vehicle!
