This invention is intended to further streamline the shape of the aft/rear end of the trailer. Drag is created by the end if the trailer, the end of witch is closed with barn door type doors, these doors are very good for low cost construction & add strength to the structure when closed. But add nothing to the streamlining of the vehicle. This turbulent air (high way speeds) steal efficiency from the vehicle. This invention creates a curved streamline shape on the rear of the trailer, creating a much less draggy vehicle. The dynamic shape is created by small air scoops at the top rear of the trailer doors. These scoops use the ram air (effect of the forward motion of the truck) to fill fabric air bags (sewn to shape, to fill to a stream line form)
