    Here’s one site that has info on skirts (under the trailer to reduce side flow) and tails at the back. There’s an image of a wind tunnel view that gives a good idea what it helps with. Those vortexes at the back of a flat trailer suck a lot of power.

      I’d much rather have my shirt going all floppy flappy in between the vortices and keeping my back cool than shaving 2 seconds off my relaxation cruises.

      I know some people who would jump on this 100% and I should probably send them the article…
