My apologies to truckers... I guess the only information I have about them is from "Smokey and the Bandit," which probably isn't a reliable source.
Good point about the economics, though. You would think that companies such as Wal-Mart, for whom cheap transportation is a real cornerstone, would be really interested in this sort of thing. Pretty soon transportation costs are going to affect their business model, and their board members won't really care if the trucks are a bit outlandish looking.
