Well, using the billowing shirt of a motorcyclist example, it would be self-inflating.

Per my duct tape and Dacron or tarp cover idea as noted above, maybe air from under the truck would come up in that gap between cab and bed, and fill the bag from beneath, with no extra effort.

Worth trying, methinks.

Actually, this mike work even better with the tailigate down, and the tarp affixed to its trailing edge--longer, more gentle slope from the cab roof that way.
