Driving in Windy Conditions

I live in one of those high wind areas in the upper desert of SoCal and second the other poster about doing the driving in the morning. If I stayed at home when winds got over 25 mph, I wouldn't get to do much camping (or keep my job for that matter). In my area, winds typically pick up in the afternoon with the "good stuff" at 3 pm and later. Most of the time it's pretty low, 35 mph or less but occasionally it's higher (at times MUCH higher). I will say for someone not used to it (unfortunately I am), even 35 mph can freak you out but I assure you it's not dangerous at that speed UNLESS your driving skills or your rig are not up for the task. I have driven with 65 mph gusts before and the rig was stable at 45 mph (the slide topper awning however was not stable). I didn't intend to drive the rig at those wind speeds BTW.
