Change Frunk "hood" for more Range

I wonder if Ford ever tested the Lightning for increased range with a modified frunk lid. Using the same lifting mechanism and latch and a more aero efficient shape could offer some storage while giving more range? Only wind tunnel testing would determine if a gain in range could be achieved.
Perhaps this could be a aftermarket frunk cover when more range is more important than maximum lockable storage.

That huge grill has no place when a $80k pickup truck comes with the equivalent of a 4 gallon tank.
Your numbers are correct, but they don't take into acccount the ~70% of gasoline that is lost to the environment as waste heat.
