Default TM In Heavy Winds While Towing

I came across this thread and thought that I would add some related information to it. My wife and I have just returned from a 2000 mile trip through New Mexico, Arizona and returning to California. While on our last leg on Interstate 10 headed to home we ran into very heavy winds in Indio and the Palm Springs area. I estimate that those winds were 45 to 55 mph. Along with the winds were heavy sand blowing across the freeway.

At no time was I concerned. I have a mid-sized SUV and a 3124KS. It performed well against these heavy cross winds. We had no problem...although my fuel economy was affected. The low profile paid off. I observed other high profile RV units and they were swaying all over the place. Our TM was rock solid.

Just food for thought.
