That is sweet. You should close the gap between the cab and the cover though.. I guess with a soft foam type material to allow for flex

Yup. That guy has the black truck you posted pictures of.
Thank's for looking.
As far as any additional seaches don woory bout it. 
If I come across it I'll post.
Now .... back on topic :
Electric Man , are you planning to install some wheels that you can use 'mooneyes' on ?

As this post shows, they do make a noticeable difference. With your truck, you might even see even more of a change.
Good luck |

If you want to keep your truck all jacked up high, you would probably see a really good improvement with gap fillers for the wheel wells.
You could use black rubber liner that is not only flexible but also wouldn't stand out so much as odd looking.
'BigDave' did something similar to his truck, although I haven't seen any new images of his latest endevours.
( One more thing : I really like your EV car. )

gotta be logged in to view pic so I'll post it 
Looks like a Quad Cab to me, but no need for picky details. Very neat cap, but I like opaque caps to hide the stuff under it.

Question for the experts--does flow stay attached all the way to the rear with this design?
Seems as though the angle near the back gets too steep.
