Google truck foil.

Thank you. Ryno, I have an Icon Air Foil and it doesn't work well with bugs. There is usually a super clean place on the front cap 'directly' behind the foil, but the rest of the cap gets covered with bugs. I've relocated it, front to back on the top of the truck, and altered the angle of the foil; no difference. As far as fuel economy, if it helps, it's not much. My truck averages between 10 & 11 mpg, and I'm pretty well satisfied with that. I even went to the trouble of color painting and installing Air Tabs on the back, and they are almost worthless, as well.
