My 1976 Ford van spoiler I made back in 1983 was about 3-1/2" from the ground. It was still like moving a brick through the air, but was not being knocked around the road on windy days. The steering was really lose on it, so this was an important improvement.
EDIT:
I have a fabric cover for the bed which I have not put on. I also have some metal straps and smoked acrylic. If all goes as planned, one day I will install a Gurney flap spolier which I can see through. This will be after the top half gets zebra stripes of course.
