You said it about perfectly... keeps me busy on the wheel.

We have many areas of flat fields around here that are subject to heavy winds. I have pretty much always needed two hands on the wheel during these instances just to keep from looking like a drunk driver. But, I suppose with the lack of aerodynamics these rigs have this is to be expected. My last vehicle (3/4 ton Dodge truck) drove like a dream in windy weather compared to this thing. With no wind the Jeep drives just fine, even lifted. I bet the wind will push her around now, though!

Yeah, Jeeps are interesting to drive in heavy winds. Your earlier post said "any bit of wind", which got my attention. But here in Oklahoma "heavy winds" are about 20-25 MPH. Anything less is a pleasant breeze. LOL.
