Actually, someone asked if we give investment advice. Not exactly: we give investment advice the same way we give trailering advice. We let you make your own decision, you tell us about what you did, and then we tell you what you should have done differently! ๐Ÿ˜‰

The secret to doubling your money is to fold it in half and stick it back in your pocket!

And when driving, remember Rule Number One: shiny side up, rubber side down. (See, we're staying right on topic!)

Answer (From the person who was driving the truck):

"Ten months ago while traveling through the Bonneville Salt Flats on the way to Yosemite sudden 70 plus mile per hour wind gusts picked up our Lance 1575 and swung it around the side of our truck taking the truck with it and tipping both over."

No bad injuries, truck was repaired, and trailer totaled.

Bub, you have sharper eyes than I do -- I can't tell if the line on the far side of the photo is yellow or not. On a four lane divided highway, is the left line yellow? I thought yellow was just for undivided highways.

So your reading is that the truck and the trailer spun 180 degrees and still stayed in alignment? That could happen, I suppose, but it is amazing.

I guess we will never know.

Just having fun speculating on what might have happened. As someone else pointed out, his LP tank is out a ways on the ice. Looks like footprints next to it, maybe going to the other direction of the divided hwy. I'll also surmise that they were ok since they took the time to stack/arrange there belongings.
