How's it do with the 18-wheeler bow wave and backwash?

Bow waves and backwash do push it around
more than before the tail was added. It didn't feel unsafe, it just required paying better attention and a firm grip on the wheel when they were passing.
The big difference is in bow waves between different makes of trucks. Some will push it over a 1ft. or more, while others barely make it wiggle. Which goes to show there is a lot room for aerodynamic improvement by the truck manufactures.
Backwash severity was determined by what trailer they were pulling. Flat beds and tankers seem to have little effect, while boxes obviously had the most (more than average).
The car likes clean air. Mpg is significantly less when I'm their wake according to the computer. So I stay away.
