Re: "Cartalk" just announced gas saving tips
I have seen rigs toss up "gators" before so I see where they are coming from. They also mentioned the delayed reaction time.
Still, I wouldn't of made it across Texas one time on my motorcycle if I hadn't drafted. Had a 35 miles per hour crosswind and I could barely stay on the road. Pulled in behind a double trailer 18 wheeler and drafted my way for about 150 miles. He was a lifesaver and he knew exactly what I was doing and why.
'00 Insight "Wazabi" -75,000+ miles
'03 Toyota Matrix - 81,000+ miles
'03 HCH-CVT-OSBM-41,000+ miles (retired 04-10-06)
"I'm very secure with my little Insight, no Prius envy here."
