[Phase]

So I decided to drive to Los Angeles and back from Portland and I noticed some interesting things

1. Cops don’t seem to care about your side mirror removal. Drove on California highways and even around Venice beach and the la metro for days. No comments on BOTH side mirror removals

2. Wheel spats get a lot of attention. People make comments every time you stop. Passengers in other cars turn around and stare at your car. People make comments driving by them in parking lots

3. Warmer sunny days with dry roads really help with rolling resistance

4. The corridor effect is very real in Los Angeles when traffic is flowing.

5. The hard concrete “ ridges/grooves” highways are extremely low rolling resistance surfaces.


With my eco mods, driving on the smooth highways with warmer dry weather and the corridor affect, I was averaging 68 mpg at 75-80 miles per hour in the Los Angeles metro area when traffic was flowing fast ( LA drivers go fast when there’s no gridlock)

68 mpg at 75-80 mph is insane!!! Felt like I was just gliding the whole time and barely had to push on the throttle. Crazy gas prices offset the gains though.

I attached a pic of their smooth roads
