Do "vented" tailgates help on 5th wheels?
Friend of mine says he gets better mileage with a vented/louvered tailgate. Do they really make a difference or is it just another novelty item that's nice to have but not needed.

X2. I've lost a few things out of my bed from turbulence. Now, almost everything is tied down, especially if it's under the nose of the FW. I lost a set of those hard plastic wheel chocks and never got over 60 on a 10 mile trip in calm weather.
