For the rear wheelwell skirt, i was thinking about a skirt that came down like an eye-lid over an eye... with the eye being the tire. It would bump out the frontal area a little, but it would be smooth flowing down the side of the truck. I just need to figure the right geometry so it tucks up and out of the way but is rigid enough to not flap in the wind on the highway.

I agree with removable stuff, I'm thinking a sizeable air-dam primarily, then cleaning up the underside with a belly pan, like you also said. Definitely an aero bed cover integrated with the roll cage. I mostly only think / dream about this stuff because I haven't had time to actually work on it! I'll let you guys know if I have any aero-progress.
