Holy shit. Talk out of your ass more. I’ve been a trucker for almost twenty years and this is close to the dumbest uninformed speculation presented as fact that I’ve ever witnessed.
I’m guessing that twenty years ago you didn’t have to go through the all the training that they make us go through today which explicitly talks about things like this? It’s not uninformed, it’s making a huge deal out of a small thing to make the average idiot driver 0.2% safer, which I guess makes a difference in the math of our modern megacarriers.

I was told this by someone who worked for a trucking company.
You might also want to contact these companies and tell them they’re spreading misinformation:

…and MANY others.
They should include this guide with pick-up trucks and cargo vans because those (in rear-wheel drive) are essentially the same thing

Take it from a Canadian trucker, bobtailing in a blizzard is NOT a good time.
