In the preferred embodiment, these extension portions extend from the edge of the baffle toward the center and comprise at least half the distance from the edge to the mid-point of the baffle. Also, in the preferred embodiment, a front curved vortex stabilizer, a portion of which extends above the wind deflector, is used in combination with the wind deflector for additional drag reduction.
