232 and more to come

Yep, 232 projects on the RV and trailer. Still got a few more up my sleeve.
Added Vortex Generators. See picture. 15 to a side, 11 on top. Suppose to reduce drag and therefore increase mileage.
Makes it look like a dragon's neck from behind.
This and reducing brake drag, reducing weight and other aerodynamic drags should get us to my next goal of 16-17 mpg. Have got 15 before many MPG improvements were made.
Won't be taking the trailer and any bike. They're about 1100#'s.
Going to Phoenix soon for Carolyn's birthday next week, we are going to celebrate, she will be 69.
Still about 100 here, and 110-115 in Phoenix and Indio. Ya,Ya... it's a dry heat like in hell! Except the rainy season is hitting PHX hard. So the humidity will be up.
Added a curtain behind front seats to keep cool in, heat out, hope it helps.
