Vented tailgate

Newbie here with a question. What are the pros and cons of a vented tailgate? I have a 8' box with a trifold cover and my stock tailgate on now, what should I do? This wasn't an issue when I had my TT

  • Pro's
    - some claim better mileage
    - visibility and ease of hooking up

    Con's
    - Cost. Probably never recoop any fuel savings
    - Anything light in the back of the truck will likely fly out.
    - Looks. Some like the look, some hate it. I'm the later but that's just me..
