Do you expect so much difference in fuel economy or dirt on your toad that you can rule out normal variations in measured data? Assuming they work I would think it would be very difficult to measure effect accurately given all other background variables that change from one trip to the next.

And this could work both ways. If you get same MPG result as previous trip it doesn't confirm they didn't work at all.
