I still get in the mid 30's MPG and it cruises the freeway just fine. " A man's got to know his limitations!" I do put one extra strap across the top center to pull the load tight inward to stabilize the load but that is just an extra and probably not needed. I hope this helps.
Dang and I feel uneasy about having one sit flat on the roof rack of my truck. That would be nerve racking to me. Props to you sir.
