What does everyone think of that? I saw a Dakota today it looked sweet butt there was a spoiler on it and it didnt look right they dont belong on pickup trucks

I think it looks all right on some trucks usually when the bed is covered

I think the spoilers look hot on some trucks, not all of them though. I like the spoiler on the new Dodge Ram SRT-10:

That thing's sweet! i love the Viper V-10 engine in it. I think it's the fastest truck you can get straight from the factory.

actually they belong more on trucks than on our cars sence they are rwd and spoilers are made to create downforce which gives better traction however... some one once told me that most spoilers dont work till high (like over 100mph) speeds but im not sure how accurate that it i think it has to do with the shape and setup of the spoiler itself...

They just set a world speed record a few weeks ago in the SRT-10 at just over 154 mph in a completely stock production vehicle with no modifications to it. It beat out the Ford Lightning for the title.

saturn stock spoilers are designed to reduce areodynamic drag and improve gas mileage, they're also for looks.

i normally HATE spoilers on trucks I think it looke like **** but I guess it doesnt look to bad on that dodge... still not a huge fan though

It works on the dodge because it's not so "overdone". I see alot of pickups, specifically S-10's, Ford Rangers, and F-150's with oversized spoilers which look rediculous. As long as they flow with the lines of the truck, it works. That goes for any vehicle really.
