A full cap on a full length bed that meets the top of the tailgate is too fast.



The example at Permalink #2 has the right shape, but nobody uses it. It immobilizes the tailgate and would work best on a slammed minitrick.

I think this could have bevels at the left and right ends. The manager knew it helped the mileage, but he didn't know how much.
