I have never seen any documentation (from people not trying to sell VGs) that shows that VGs improve mileage. MetroMPG has also done testing that supports this.

well then, we shall see! ths being the point of putting them on there, I may take them off at some point, but they are behind where the airflow seperates so they should not add much in the way of drag, but they do seem to keep the air on the roof as explained by the dry roof, I'll see how they handle snow.
