Is there anything you can do to prevent the fading? I also have an ED 80 #842 and I can't find how to protect the matte finish here in New Mexico, home of exceptionally strong UV.

I get about 38 MPG city and close to 50 highway (varying 75-100 mph).
I do have a windscreen and I think that helps lower the drag.
