That's a serious issue regarding maintenance, too.
Rented trailers can be towed by company X today, and Y the next day, and basicly nobody is really taking care of them.
Independent truckers have the best maintained rigs - because it's theirs and they'll look after it properly.

The cost of fuel is on the tactor owner so why would the trailer owner spend money on mods to help the tactor owner.

Ask more money for an aeromodded trailer that the tractor owner can tow cheaper - if he feels it's worth the extra, depending on what he wants to use it for.
