    It's pretty cold at 30,000 feet! But you'd be inside a nice metal tube! Where ya' at Maner?

    They make trail rear bumper and swing out but like I said it's ugly. I don't think it goes well on Tacoma

    I'm thinking about doing the roof rack and putting a small solar panel on the roof rack that way I don't have to run a hard camper

    I've gone back and forth on a roof rack. The utility is nice, but everyone seems to get at least a 1 mpg hit to their mileage.

    That's what I'm worrying about. I can live with 15 mpg average, but much more will require a gas-sipping daily. I'm pushing the limits right now, and my excellence as a hyper-miler has helped with me getting 16+ with my setup

    No, I did the math verified with 2 GPS trackers, cell phone and Garmin, and I get 15-16 city, 16.2-17 highway, 15.6-16.1 combined

    It'll come with doing more. My mom had been trying to break out in the art world since the late 80s, got her first break about 12 years ago doing a mural on a building for the City of Charlotte, North Carolina. She used that to blow up her art career and branch out into obscure old fine arts techniques.

    Doubtful. I'm thinking the wind resistance is higher and making the engine work harder to maintain speed will still hurt. Higher RPM will still burn more gas, so it's definitely a hard choice
