Hi billtex does this rack stop the cross wind turbulence kerfuffles and is it quiet ?
It is quiet and it does keep the bugs off the body of TC.
We only starting using it regularly last season and I am still collecting data so I cannot say for sure it is helping mpg. I will be prepared to make a statement after this season. I am inclined to say if it keeps the bugs off it must be re-directing the turbulence. Time (data) will tell.
Not familiar with "cross wind turbulence kerfuffles" so can't comment there...
We have driven across the plains a couple of times and all I can say is "hold on to your hats"!
Crazy wind...
But being as the wind foil is in front, and the camper has such a large profile, I am not sure how any of these would help with x-winds?
Can you explain the cross wind turbulence kerfuffles phenomena?
Tx, Bill
