No way in my work truck. It would be destroyed in about 5 mins.

Doing the Double Nickel on low rolling resistance tires would make a bigger difference. As far as big trucks and side skirts on the trailers goes, the actually only work above something like 65 and not in a cross wind. Very little ROI, but great for marketing.
