    Out of all the aerodynamic stuff for trailers, the skirts are the most legit. There’s a big hole there where air constantly gets in and creates resistance against the tandem. I believe my trailer skirt is a money maker. Just don’t drive the trailer with the tandem to the back, and only slide your tandem once your trailer is about five feet from the dock if there is a large dip.

    Hahahaha!! Any trucker will do what he is told with company equipment. Or be fired until he learns to buy his own.

    Or goes to a company that doesn’t put that silly #### on their trucks.

    You guys are assuming that mega company drivers care what their trucks look like. From what I see everyday the looks of the truck are the last thing they're worried about. Ripped off bumpers, skirts, wheelcovers, fairings, etc. on trucks that haven't seen a wash in months are all part of the mega-carrier uniform so far as I can tell. However, the trucks still usually look better than the drivers.
