I am friends with a few owner/operators. They want HP in their Freightliners. I asked about side skirts and the answer they gave me was that they get blown around more with the added surface area. They could give a hoot about super singles since it costs money to take off good tires.
Some of these guys treat their trucks like hot rods. They want good looking trucks that go fast.
