Abstract: A wind deflector for the tailgate of a pickup truck includes a generally rectangular sheet having an exterior and an interior surface which are interconnected by a periphery formed of a long horizontal top edge, a long horizontal bottom edge, and a pair of short side edges extending therebetween. The sheet may be either a flexible fabric material or a rigid material. Top and bottom sets of hook and loop fasteners are provided for attaching the deflector to the bed and tail gate of the pickup truck. The hook fasteners are affixed to the interior surface of the sheet along the sheet's top and bottom edges. The top loop fastener is affixed to the top edge of the tail gate of the pickup truck while the bottom loop fastener is affixed to the floor of the pickup truck bed. In addition, the loop fasteners are spaced from each other a distance which approximates the length of the short side edges of the sheet.
