Full Tonneau vs Partial
My truck is often used to haul and a full tonneau is a large pain to deal with for me but the 20 inch cover over the rear, near the tailgate noted in the SAE Truck Aerodynamics Test (2004-01-1146) seemed to offer a good portion of the benifits of a full tonneau. It would be a simple item I could fab up and slap on for my occasional high speed jaunts. Has anyone here tried it? Comments encouraged.
