Recap....
---Flush-mounted windshield eliminates need for molding that would disrupt smooth airflow
---Tailgate top is designed to act as a spoiler, giving air that flows off the roof a place to land before smoothly trailing off – reducing turbulence behind the truck
------Cargo box is narrower than the cab, with no reduction in box volume, which enhances airflow, while a trim piece prevents air from getting trapped between cab and box
---Rear corners including tail lamps are precisely angled so air breaks off cleanly – reducing turbulence behind the truck
---Duct under headlamp channels air through to the wheel housing and reduces the wake generated from the wheel
