My brother was driving a 1974 Pinto Station Wagon across the desert on his way from California to Yellowstone.
Somewhere along the way he saw a "dust devil" (aka mini tornado). He thought it would be fun to try to hit it.
Big mistake. It nearly ran him into a ditch.
Just as a guess, small low profile trailers behind a reasonably large TV would fair better.
Even better, never aim for one intentionally.
Just a random thought I am passing along. I have seen these little devils, but not as big as the one my brother hit. He said it was about 6 feet tall.
It isn't just trucks and side winds that push you around.
