Tractor Trailer Boat tail
On my way in to work this morning, half a dozen tractor trailers passed me up on the highway that had no trailers attached. I believe thats called dead legging, but I could be wrong. Not know much about the truck hauling business I was wondering if these trucks return to the same spot each time they pick up a load?
If so, I thought that a large boat tail extending back from the back of the cab, attached to the kingpin and having gurney style retractable wheels would be ideal for these truckers that have to run empty on some trips ...
That alone should bump their mpg's abit ..
