The first two are what I am thinking about trying until work gets better. The last one is just plain silly in my untrained eyes. I would think the last pic would just make a bigger "hole" behind the truck.

I hope these are big enough to see.

Thanks.
I think you'd be far better off with one of those tonneau covers. This looks like it will produce drag for the sake of downforce. The side ones perhaps help stability (?) but would also produce drag I think.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
