oem vortex generators on ford based motorhome

spotted this on a camping site where i stayed last weekend.


though it would be worth posting the picture here. it seemed much more aero than the average boxy thing on the campside although i wonder what the vg's will be worht with the broad windows and other stuff bolted on the side.

still since these where oem, the manifacturer might have done some aero research on the entire vehicle.

Seems like it would be worth it to lurk on some motorhome websites in order to find this. Too bad you didn't get a picture of the make/model. I would think this is for noise suppression as much as FE improvement.
