Default Re: Does waxing help mpg?

i am not claiming a 10 percent increase in fuel economy. I am saying a 10 percent decrease in the coefficient of drag vs a dirty car.

the coefficient of drag is a small part of the entire equation that results in gas mileage. Sorry if i was unclear. also i am probably wrong, but i was told there is defiantly an effect.
