Did you model the truck using Solid Works or did you imported it? I tried several importing 3dstudio max meshes and I didn't find the way to convert it to a solid.
Does your simulation use rolling wheels? If so, have you tried if there are some differences between smoth hubcaps or steel/aluminum standard wheels?
Do you think to test some rubber mudflaps versus some king of ecoflaps (Eco-Flaps) ?
How much time did the simulation last? In what machine?
Thanks for sharing your work?

I was trying to assess the benefits of a boat tail in long delivery vans like these:
UPS Delivery Van 3D Model by justonepixel
iveco daily van 3d model
Cargo vehicle light commercial car, (.3ds) 3D Studio, Transportation Objects free software download
Mercedes Sprinter II Van Long 3D Model by SQUIR
Mercedes New Sprinter Pack (3 Models) 3D Model by kdeniz
3D CAD Browser - 3D Model Preview - Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
3D CAD Browser - 3D Model Preview - Mercedes-Benz Sprinter [NURBS]

but i have to solve several problems importing or modelling objects yet.

I'm sorry about too much questions.
