Change is not without its impacts. Aerodynamic improvements of road vehicles are no exception to this rule: the look and feel of the vehicle can change. The boat tail is a clear example of an aerodynamic aid that will need attention from the driver. The feel of the truck will be different and should be addressed in a driver training.
