The more you can do to have a large frontal area vehicle combination only make "one hole" through the air the better = why it's harder to pull in a cross wind than head wind - the wind gets at all the gaps and clutter. The pointier the front and the more shaped like a fish the stern the better. The closer roof top fairings are to a trailer the better.

The reason 18 wheelers use them is the payback is there due to the high milage the truck puts on. Over the road trucks will drive between 100K to 300K per year. A small increase in mpg multiplies very fast at that rate. For an RV it may not pay. I do however think they do increase the mpg if set up right.

Anyone had a Titanium, with the "double step" front end want to chime in? I'd think they'd have an advantage over a similarly-sized rig with a more "standard" front end.

Does the cost of installing a airfoil on the cab roof of my truck offset any increase in gas mileage because of the aerodynamics? Does the airfoil effect handling of the truck while hauling a 35 foot 5th wheel? Thanks for your thoughts and input.
