I have been considering doing something similar myself.

If I get time this week, I want to add some Gorilla Zig-Zag tape to some of the frontal roll-off areas,
before I make my 200 mile round trip.
It's 95% highway and maybe I'll see some change in MPG on the Scangauge2. (I hope).

I'm an old absentminded dude and I forgot to write down the Tank MPG and Odometer readings at my last fill up. I just tweaked the gallons correction % -0.1 then hit the save and odometer trip-meter reset.. Next time, I'll leave my wife at home when I get gas..

Since I only buy 8 or 9 gallons a month, I'm lucky that I've got my scangauge working as well as it does.

Since I'm now driving 1000-2000 miles a year, this is a hobby thing for me, and I really don't try too hard to save gas when running around town. (My wife freaks when I turn off the ICE at a light).

My main interest is finding out if my Modded CRV can hit 35 MPG..
If I can do that, my work here is done.....
