Reverse wake?
This has been on my mind and I have no idea if there are studies on it, and it kind of makes sense but is there a benefit of someone else tailgating you?
We all know that driving behind another vehicles wake can improbable your fuel economy, but what if someone else is behind you extremely close? Wouldn’t they essentially be filling in part of your cars wake? Obviously the benefits wouldn’t be as good as dragging behind someone else, but in theory could it benefit you?
I was reading about “ slip streaming” and it was saying the longer the line of cars, the better the benefits. That has to mean that all of the cars in the chain link affect each other right? Like it says slipstreaming is more effective than just driving behind a single vehicle.
Does this theory make sense or am I just over thinking things?
