Okay,thanks.
The 2nd-gen S-10 dropped from Cd 0.475,to Cd 0.42 for the 1992 model year.
A Ranger of the same vintage would be 0.40.Both good candidates!
The Banks Engineering guys and GM got a 1st-gen GMC S-15/Sonoma to Cd 0.315 (lower than a Corvette of that era) for an assault at Bonneville around 1990.207 mph or something like that.
In 1995,there was a whole field of EV pickups at the Phoenix International Raceway,for the APS Solar 500.All they could run were tonneau covers.Too bad!
It was there that I got the idea for a Cd 0.12,EV range-extender trailer.
And driving a Formula-E was cool!
