Mylar is very light, but here in Colorado we've had problems with these things floating away with helium filled 4 year olds, or something like that...
I've also been thinking about Visqueen with a top panel that's clear so you can see out your rear window, and some type of ram air intake with enough volume to keep the boattail inflated without turning it into a parachute.
Too much to think about, and I haven't even blocked my grill yet...

TOOO FUNNY about the kid floating away.
The problem with 'ram air' is that the boattail is then acting like a paracute creating a ton of drag. Taking it from turbulent areas should reduce this, but I still think there would be some drag.
