maybe they just use them on the highway to reduce drag (the same technique nascar drivers use, where they cover up strategic parts of the grille with duct tape to smooth airflow). i dont see too many rigs around town with those grille covers.
another questions about rigs....why is it that they all use insanely large inline 6's? why not v-8's or v-10? my only guess is that because of the huge displacement needed (somewhere around 15 litres), its easier to balance an inline 6 because its a naturally balanced engine. would other diesel engines with that kind of displacement shake themselves apart?
