My truck is a short-bed, which is NOT ideal for aerocap, compared to a long bed.
I do like the idea of a cap that doesn't come even to the top of the tailgate on the back. Something that looks a bit like the back of a Prius or Insight might be slick.
I also like the idea of having a flat area in the rear to maintain a small rearview window. One of the things I like about my pickup is that it has very good sight-lines all the way around. I would like to not lose too much of that with and aerocap.
