My jerry-built fastback fairing, even thogh it is too steep (17 degrees) improved my MPG by 1.5 MPG over a flat tonneau. They do work.

If you haven't the time or skills to make an aerocap, flat tonneaus (hard or soft) are available off the shelf. In fact if you have a Ford Super Duty short bed, I'll sell you one cheap.
