SEATTLE, Wash. — Members of the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) who run their own trailers now qualify for a 15% discount off trailer side skirts from Freight Wing.

Aeroflex side skirts from Freight Wing have proven to deliver 7% fuel savings using SAE/TMC J1321 testing methods.

Sean Graham, president of Freight Wing says the payback is often under 50,000 miles.

“It’s about the fastest return on investment you can find in the trucking industry,” he claims.

Meanwhile, California has introduced new rules that will require pre-2011 model year 53-ft. dry van trailers to have aerodynamic fairings by Jan. 1, 2013. New trailers must be spec’d with side skirts now if they are to run into California.

Fleets with up to 20 trailers can phase in side skirts, but they must first file a compliance agreement by Jan. 1, 2012. For info on the regulations, visit http://www.arb.ca.gov and click on The Truck Stop icon.
