    I was thinking a solid strategy for dealing with the WY winds is to travel in pairs. I believe this would greatly lessen chance of blowing over.

    Not good for other traffic looking to pass, but nonetheless seems like a solid tactic.

    Any thoughts?

    Magically pass interference appears to seal the game.

    When we fought the more manuvarable zero. AM62. We needed pairs to counter act it's agility. WY wind extremely manuvarable, so yes pairs are needed.


    Excellent documentary. On said zero.

    No wind speed warnings, and it was only for Westbound.

    South Texas. Wilson liked my presence in the PNW, but this load was more of freak coincidence because the trailer I'm hauling delivera in Lathrop by the 1st. No good freight was moving the way I needed late Friday afternoon.
