Yep, I agree!
mackerel,
Looks pretty good so far...and the fuel mpg increase..YeeeHaw!
I don't know what the money situation is, but, you could use metal coil (Painted to your choice of color), too.
You already have the template made of wood. The advantage would be a lighter weight material that you could wrap around the front of the bed to cover the current gap. You could also used separate pieces of coil and attach a curved fairing to the back outside edges of the truck cab and deflect the air outward...just like the big rigs do at the backs of their cabs. You could also use flashing for the cab edges...it's about 8 bucks for a 10' by 10" piece...found at your local big box store.
Keep it going!
