Some years ago going West from El Paso, there was a dust storm and high winds blowing, I was doing 40 miles per hour and seriouslly considering geting off the road when a big Chevy Prarie wagon pulling a trailler past doing about 80 MPH with the trailler swaying a bit, about a couple of miles up the road we came up on the scene of the chey and the frame up side down, the toilet paper unrolling in the wind and some people stopped on both sides of the reoad, all that was left was the trailler's frame, everything else was trash.
High wind and high profile vehicle sides are an accident waiting to happen, ever carry an 8x4 plywood out doors with a little wind, makes a great sail.
Add an under powered vehicle and the chanses are raised, but a salesman and a person that have no incling of what towing involes are a great recepie for a dissater on the making.
Hoppe no one was hurt.
