There are lots of things I would like to do. First on my list is a wheel well liner for the rear wheels. Then I would like to add a belly pan to the truck which is the one thing I think will add the greatest improvement in performance. I would not mind adding wheel covers but the truck has really nice wheels already and I do not want to drill into them or anything like that. Possibly I can find another set of wheels that I can add aero covers to sell on the wheels I have? Aerodynamic fences are another option. to keep more air out from under the truck in the first place. Be nice to have air suspension to just lower the truck but I doubt that is possible with hauling a fifth wheel in mind. Whatever I do it needs to look nice and be durable.
