Not notice it at all?? unlikely. Noticeable but of no real issue? very possible.
There have been many many times I've come down the columbia river gorge and didn't realize how bad the wind was untill I stopped at a rest stop and got out of the truck. Did I notice it while driving? yes, but the effect was mimimal enough that it didn't concern me. I'm towing a 35' TT with my crew cab 3/4 ton.
The gorge is known for bad winds, probably 50% of the time or more figure 25+ mph sustained and 40+ gusts on some stretches.
When not towing in the gorge, again, I can feel it in the truck, in my sedan, virtually never notice till I stop, but it has a Cd of <.3 and designed for autobahnn runs. Our old accord, well another story, definitely could tell and had to pay attention same with the chevy 3/4 ton van.
