Sorta like what you can get between cab and bed, if there's a gap there.
Did some highway drives today at speed and the rear window didn't even budge. Guess I will have to do test drives with the trailer and see if the window will budge again.

It's probably gonna be a wash once I start building the trailer up to match the width of the truck and install the gap covers.

There is a gap between the cab and bed but the aero cap and belly pan should minimize the amount of air that should move through the bed. I guess if I really wanted to know, I'd have someone else drive the truck and I'll sit in the bed and see what moves the pinwheel or set up some yarn tuffs on a string and place a bunch of them under the aero cap.
