I have doubts about this. Do you have any evidence to support your claim?That air dam is to induce a vacuum to move more air through the radiators. If never pushing the motor with a loaded truck you may not notice it. Depends on the climates you drive through. Manufacturers do not put on things because they want to. The reasons can be government regs, reduce warranty issues, engineering proves it is needed, etc.

The 6.4 has a massive fan shroud over the entire radiator, the fan is pulling air thru the radiator it’s not drag induced vacuum.
Now I don’t know for certain, since I’m not the engineer who designed it, but if I had to guess what it really does: styling. Without it the NTHSA Compatability brackets are visible and stick out like a sore thumb. Perhaps a minor aerodynamics boost but MPG obviously don’t matter on 3/4 and 1 ton trucks (they aren’t even rated)
