I could not agree more, which is why my mods focused on reducing pick-up truck lift and creating down-force.

This is different than what we usually do in this forum, which is reduction of Cd.

I'd like to think I've done both, but have no idea other than knowing that I've lowered my fuel consumption, and improved the handling at speed, and in bad weather.

I like the design featured in this thread for it's simplicity.
