If you don't already see 10mpg, I wouldn't expect it in the future.
I am an Aeronautical engineer who flew Jets for 34 years, I know a bit about air flow.
These devices may show fleet improvement, if you drive 120,000 miles per year.
While I only flew jets for nine years and am a mere mechanical engineer, I would agree. My AirTabs help in stability, but there is no proven mileage improvement. Still, for $265 they were a good modification that I think are useful in a crosswind.:)
The ME would have been better for me. It would be interesting to quantify their improvement. I wonder if you could use a yaw accelerometer to find what happens? Most reporters have no notion of scientific method.
