I'd never heard of surfing until reading that article, but if you're doing it on the left side, I don't think it's really all that bad. The truck driver can see you clearly there, and I can't remember the last time I saw a truck change lanes without using their turn signals (letting you scoot ahead as soon as you see them blinking... you *are* using your mirrors, right?). Drafting I don't do simply because I hate being that close to something throwing up paint-chipping rocks, though I do tend to follow trucks somewhat closely in the fall when the deer are rutting. I'm far more confident in their ability to just plow through them than in my ability to stop.
