gate down/removed

One of our members in Europe (Belgium I believe) tested his bedcover both ways and reported that mpg was better with the gate installed.
Today's pickups have faux spoilers on the gate,hoping that drivers will be reminded to put the gate up after unloading cargo.This infers that aero is improved with the gate in place for any pickup which sports one of these 'spoilers.'
