I seen the 1/2 tonneau pik but ill bet ya there is no bed in that truck, and it was done to suck the truck to the ground at 200mph.
I gotta figure out how to make smoke gun to test these kinda things better.
I got a fair amount of flack about the air dam v/s front spoiler choice but tested and proved is front spoiler creates more aero so car cuts through the air. The dam forces compression of even more air at front of vehicle. Then creates vacuume under the car at hiway speeds and even more turbulence than none of the above without side skirts.
I dont want a vacuume under my car or more downward pressure. both of which are usefull for other stuff, but for mpg less is always more! Lawn dart v/s. frisbee effects.
