You're not wrong and there are thousands of engineers working every day to do just that. It's just not something that's advertised on television or anywhere else because it's not consumer related. I've worked in that industry on fuel-saving devices and you can bet that any improvement that saves even a fraction of a percentage in freight fuel cost is being studied and developed.
