[QUOTE="blairandgretchen, post: 12211152, member: 76574"]We pulled many sets from SLC to DEN dead empty when we pulled doubles - it's not in the least bit funny. You have to be pretty vigilant, and make your own comfort level decision to pull over when it gets rough. Jackknife it in reverse if you do park to form more angles if you have the room to do so, form a S shape if at all possible - I've seen straight line winds take 53' vans and sets over while parked.[/QUOTE]
