My 1998 has a mechanical fan that always runs and moves quite a lot of air even when the clutch has it "off". You might do well to switch to electric fans.
I plan on a few other mods. The good bed covers are $400 ~ $800. If the can give a 1.5mpg increase it would pay for it's self in 18 months.

The electric fans are $600 ~ $700 and should pay for it's self in 12 months...
