'Boat tail' decreases fuel consumption trucks by 7.5% the wired
Link #148345 submitted by Mac on Nov 6, 2009 08:01am.   (+370XP)

...,whose owner's and builder's profits depend on fuel and fuel economy to such a great degree, are giant, flat-fronted boxes with creases, joints, and ugly angles. They're an affront to aerodynamics. They could definitely stand some improvements.
