An aerodynamic rear drag reduction system is configured to be coupled to a rear frame assembly of a trailer including a rear frame and a rear swing door. The system includes a top panel configured to be coupled to the rear swing door of the trailer to extend generally horizontally at least partially along a width of the trailer and a hinge configured to couple the top panel to the rear swing door, the hinge configured to rotate about a pivot axis to move the top panel between a fully-deployed position and a fully-stowed position where a bottom surface of the top panel is configured to lie generally adjacent the rear swing door, the pivot axis being substantially parallel to a top edge of the rear frame of the trailer, when viewed from above, when the top panel is coupled to the rear swing doors.
