A fairing structure for a vehicle having a front vehicular component and a rear vehicular component in tandem and separated by a gap, comprising a top fairing surface adapted to be attached to the rear vehicular component, a first side surface adapted to be attached to a first side of the rear vehicular component, joining a first end of the top surface and generally perpendicular to the top surface, and a second side surface adapted to be attached to a second side of the rear vehicular component, joining a second end of the top surface opposite the first end and generally perpendicular to the top surface. Each of the top and first and second side surfaces has a proximal edge adapted to be positioned adjacent a vehicle, as well as a distal edge adapted to be positioned away from the vehicle with respect to the respective proximal edge. The proximal edges of the top and side surfaces attach to the leading top and side edges, respectively, of the front surface of the trailer box, so that an approximately uninterrupted surface is formed from the fairing structure to top and sides of the rear vehicular component. The area bounded by the distal edges of the surfaces is smaller than an area bounded by the proximal edges.
