I am interested is the results if anyone has installed Airtab vortex generators (airtab.com) on their coach. The testimonials are interesting but I'd prefer input rom another CC owner.

I put the Air Tabs on nearly 2 years ago. I have not noticed an appreciable difference in fuel mileage however the engine runs cooler because the air is removed from the rear of the coach instead of circlating in and eddy. The rear of the coach is also much cleaner. I put them on three sides, the tops of the A/C units and on the top and cover of my Sporttrac.

I had the same results on my previous Bounder T28. Add in much more stability and stressless driving in shifting winds, and as trucks blew by. Least expensive mod I made to the Bounder, to improve the comfort of long term driving. I also noted the rear camera stayed clearer in rain situations. I did see a slight increase in MPG, but not a reason to purchase and install these by itself...
I will add them to our Allure, when we get the body work dings and paint touched up next year. I'll paint them to match the coach colors.

I recommend them.
