What to do in high crosswinds
On our way back from Florida we had a lot of rain and 30mph crosswinds and had to fight to keep the motorhome on our side of the road. This made for a not so nice drive home. We have a 2004 Four Winds...

There are steps that you can take to minimize crosswind problems BEFORE you get on the road. Things like adding four corner air bags to a gasser, a trac bar, steering stabilizer, etc, all help, if installed before the winds come.
Once you are on the road, if the winds get to the point where you feel uncomfortable, pull over or slow down, whatever your schedule will permit.
I have four corner air bags and by jacking the pressure up to 80+psi I can handle 50 MPH crosswinds altho it still is not as comfortable as driving on a windless day. We do spend a lot of time traveling in the Great Plains and if you do not get used to driving in high winds, you will spend most of your trip parked and missing the sights.
