Could someone please post a link to the PDF in question?

A half a dozen posts talking about a paper not even linked to is starting to look a little silly - just my opinion.
From the source:SAE Paper # 881874,in the section on CONCLUSIONS,page 10,paragraph-4,"An interesting and unexpected discovery in the scale model testing was the 15% to 30% decrease in aerodynamic lift measured for the wing and bed cover combination.This decrease in lift will improve vehicle handling at highway speeds."
