BZP, you have a lot of sticks in the fire: ducktail + half tonneau, curved aero lid, not to mention other body mods.

In the pic above was the tailgate up or down? The way it's buckled down in back between center and side supports makes me wonder whether that was due to (a) vacuum effect underneath or (b) positive pressure above. If (b) that would suggest attached flow. Tufts would be helpful. A passenger with a video camera could be very valuable.

Our trucks are very similar. I have an 02 Tundra xCab. I believe our cab and bed body dimensions are the same. This is one aerocap design I have in mind.


Cheers
