An inwardly slanting aerodynamic trailer skirt disposed underneath a semitrailer, induces air to flow laterally inward underneath the trailer body to increase air flow in-between the trailing wheel sets, thereby causing increased air pressure to be developed immediately behind the trailer to yield a reduction in overall vehicle drag. An inwardly slanting mud flap disposed underneath a semitrailer, induces air to flow laterally inward underneath the trailer body to yield a reduction in overall vehicle drag.
