The cab visor would hurt your mileage. I like the look of them but I've heard they cna make a lot of wind noise.

If you like the look of it and want to take a chance with the wind noise, go for it. You will hardly notice any change in the gas mileage. I've heard some guys have no wind noise with them. I guess it's all about how well they are installed.
