dirty rear end

[InTruckDesign]

jayray, happens to mine all the time...really annoying when the back is caked with snow and I have to open the hatch. My window isn't too much of a big deal its the rest of the tailgate...I run a heavy coat of RainX on the window and use rainX in my washer fluid...may have to coat the whole tailgate in it to see if it helps.

I drive home from the car wash and the least bit of dust on the road is on my truck tailgate--- A spoiler would help if I could find one!

you mean like this? http://www.carid.com/2009-chevy-tahoe-spoiler/ will that really help keep the back clean? mine gets dirty quick.

Has anyone tried that one to see if it helps? I put one on my barn door (split) burb and it worked great. I end up driving it more because it stays cleaner than the NBS Tahoe.

Im pretty sure theres no way of actually curing the problem. Thats just the aerodynamics of the bricks we drive.

Yeah it sucks... just rained here last night and on the way to work this morning my hoe got filthy. I can already tell I'm gonna be spending lots of money at the car wash.

Can anyone else comment on this issue? I'm surprised an aftermarket spoilers hasn't came out to help fix this issue. I know it helped my parents trail blaser once they put on a rear spoiler to force air downward. Didn't fix the problem 100 percent but it sure helped a lot.

How bout any feed back on applying rain x or simmilar products to the rear window and the rest of the hatch?

Is there a difference between the suburban and the Tahoes back end? someone posted saying their friends suburban back end doesn't get dirty.

I asked the same question a few months ago. Nobody had a solution.
