Just who I wanted to hear from.
Which do you think is more important: maintaining flow attachment or reduction of wake area? Sure, we'd all like to do both, but I only have 80" of "run" to reduce 24" of "delta-y."
Would it be better to have 10 degrees and 12 degrees and the top of the thing 9" above the top rail of the tail gate or rather going 10/12/14 degrees and the top about 7" above the rail?
This is an interim for me follwing shooting off my mouth. Ultimately I'll make something like Bondo's fiberglass bed cover but I intend to build in a couple of faired in hard points for CCTV cameras. Here in Indiana I may be able to get an exemption from the requirement for side mirrors and my truck's mirrors are huge.
First things first. If the removable tarp thing works out I may do a side business selling to the driveaway guys. Then the hard cover.
The goofy fixed fairing I have (see garage) actually does very well at improving MPG. Its just not bed-user friendly.
