Hi everyone,
I have an '88 Festiva, which as you may know is as square as the box it came in. I rarely do any driving that would be affected by any aero tweaks, such as highway speeds, but I am planning a cross-country trip in a few months and am thinking about what I can do to make it at least a bit smoother. On my last trip across country I averaged about 43 mpg, which is not bad considering the car was loaded with my belongings and so was carrying a good amount of weight (btw, 43 mpg is with a carburetor, and a 4-speed!). Without all the weight I would have gotten at least 50 m.p.g by past experience.

I have some modifications planned already, nothing too expensive but hopefully efficient. However I would like to hear what you guys have in mind. The money spent should be minimal, as it's only for this one trip.

Let the thinking begin!
