If function other than wind deflecting or stability enhancing is disclosed it goes elsewhere in this class or another class which provides for said function, e.g., rear window cleaner.
(2) Note. Vehicles on a single chassis which exhibit airflow characteristics similar to those of tractor-trailer combinations will be treated as pulling and towed vehicles for purposes of placement in this subclass and its indents.
