Are you talking about the little hula girl stringy skirts above the wheels or the big under mounted wings that go from the landing legs almost to the back wheels?

No not like UPS has...it was actually siding...the length of the trailer between the gap of drive axle to the rear axle. It was enclosed.

Our storage boxes down both sides of our stepdeck trailer do the same and more. They to cut down the amount of road spray that we kick up. Plus they give us plenty of storage for our many custom tarps and equipment. Also improve our MPG. And they look nicer!

When he was up beside me, I did not have to turn my wipers on high and no vision problems, from a rear angle the spray appeared to stay low like with Airtabs and you could tell the driver had a good line of sight as well...

I was told by an Air Force officer that there is also drag under the truck..the skirting helps with that and improves MPG's..

we like the trailers and tractors with the fenders for no spray in the rain.
