Aerodynamic Pick-up Truck Mods

Hey-
I have found that MY modification provides the biggest gains in fuel economy while providing the most versatile starage arrangement. These lightweight boxes can easily hold a full set of golf clubs in the forward compartments and objects as large as 5 gallon jerry cans in the rear compartments with room to spare. You leave your tailgate at home and recieve an increase of well over 15% in fuel economy. Now a lot of people are saying that leaving your tailgate off or down does nothing to improve vehicle aerodynamics and I agree. Installing my boxes in the back of your truck and leaving your gate off, DOES IMPROVE VEHICLE AERODYNAMICS AND IMPROVES YOUR FUEL ECONOMY.
