Another addition to consider.. make an under tray out of corrugated plastic for the underside of the bumper as close to the tires.. without interfering with the tires path when steering.. I am about to perform this on my E350 van ... Only waiting on some free coroplast to come my way from work.... Improve aerodynamics by smoothening the turbulence under the front of the vehicle and lessens the road noise... Since my van is wider then a normal passenger vehicle . I will be strengthening the coroplast with peel and seal used in the construction of homes

This is a very good comment. I have been thinking about doing this to my F150 as well. I've studied how an undercarriage shield can greatly improve fuel economy. First thing I'm going to try is a bigger front chin spoiler to prevent that air from getting under the truck.

Great video I been thinking about doing this to my 03 F150 for awhile now. But I think I might go a different rout Lowes sells some thick flower bed edging its smooth and flexible. I used it on my 04 Taurus for a lower dam with great results. Thanks your videos are fantastic!!!!!

That's a great idea and I thought about doing that, but while in the junkyard saw this easy picking... the Tahoe. How deep is the edging?

Love this topic,I'm a career driver mostly 18 wheelers,Drove tow truck(Super duties)even service trucks.But this 10 gen for some odd reason is a handful on thw Hi way,By that it takes the most effort to keep it straight than any of the above trucks.I had it checked from front to back no issues found.It just has to be the design or something with the wind pushing me around on the hi way.

Follow up--- Id love to try a spoiler from a lightening as you point out at the end,I'd know instantly if this was my issue.For this I'm more interested in stability then MPG.Keep up the great work.

Thanks for checking in. Hope you see all my other 10th Gen videos. I have 2 '02 F150's, one is the HD F150 which is a supercharged supercrew, basically, a Lightning with 4 doors. I measured the front spoiler of my HD truck and it is only about 1" deeper than the 4x4 spoiler. My new 4x4 spoiler is about 3" deeper than the HD spoiler. There is a wrecked HD in the boneyard with a decent spoiler that I might grab. With regard to highway stability, my 4x4 was very stable on the highway, more so than my stock HD F150. I guess it has a stiffer suspension. I added Bilstein shocks to both trucks and also rear sway bars. The rear sway bar on the HD F150 made a world of difference.

@@DrivingIntelligence Thanks,Ive been looking for a wrecked HD they're hard to find around here.A guy wants 8500 for one that should be in the scrap yard for instance.Seeing this video puts a wider chin spoiler or lower valence tops on my list.That sway on the hi way is my only negative with this truck.If i could sort that out I'd be happy as can be.

Do you have a rear sway bar? That cured my HD F150 highway sway. Links in that video I sent on 10th Gen Sway Bars
