In other words, vortex generators only help sedans in the most part and coupes if the angle towards the back is greater than 10 degrees. It does not work on hatchbacks, suvs, or trucks where the air just detatches anyway since there is not more body for air to attatch to... you will only create more drag.

Thanks what i am really looking for is an aerodynamic spoiler like the one discussed here:
Green Car Congress: Novel Spoiler Design Reduces Fuel Consumption for Minivans, SUVs
The ones that are out there sit too high above the roof line to be functional. I wish i could find one like the one on Subaru forester, its almost perfect!!
