That is sooooo going to get ripped off at the next drive through, low overpass, or random tree branch.

Either that or the next interstate exit ramp is going to cause a rollover.

But hey, looks like lots of living space. Practically a 2 story condo with vaulted ceiling!

Having driven an RV about that tall in wind turbine country, I'd also like to point out that crosswinds can duck with you pretty hard.

Tractor trailers and RVs can be blown over by crosswinds out here on the Cartesian Planes. It also happens in other places where the landscape focuses the wind, like Fancy Gap in Virginia (just north of Mount Airey NC).

For bumper pull trailers, the wind-pressure on the trailer also tries to steer your vehicle by shoving the back end of your tow-vehicle around.

Out here on the prairie, the weather statements often say things about "high profile vehicles", especially when we have high wind warnings. "High profile vehicle" usually means tractor trailers and RVs, but that van counts too -- for obvious reasons. You know who you are if the wind has ever tried to blow you over!

The wind will ? you up!

What I just would like to point out is that the suspension on that van isn't overtaxed. That's what is amazing me. Mad engineer is right.
