Is this the image you're talking about?
Found it at Fluent NEWS - Fall 2004 - Streamlining Pickup Trucks

Here is a large pdf of the issue in which it appeared.

In the hunt for the above, I found
an interesting post about AERODYNAMIC MODS
(lots of pictures and links)
in a forum at moparts.org

Cheers.
