I was wondering about spoilers like that one on the Pinto... It seems like they'd trap a puddle of air, and force the air to flow above that, at a shallower angle. I guess that really does happen.

Your angles are much steeper, but since having the liftgate closed on a pickup is more aerodynamic than leaving it open, I'd think your design would help too.
