Don't you fellas have the optional 'deer avoidance' package?
(said with Texas DRAWL) :P
The RAM had the same problem, and most RAMs have the
ant. cover (looks like a 'wing' airfoil). My '95 has wind noise, and you
either
A) End up getting use to it,
B) Rack you brain trying to fix it (and you won't, else Dodge would have
done it)
C) Turn up your radio
D) Try rolling the window ALL the way up :)
or
E) Get the exhaust, get the headers, get the K&N FIPK (when/if available),
get
the computer (when/if available), and wonder what happened to the wind
noise you had before... :P
