Good post Pedro.
If you don't like heavy winds be sure you never go from Dallas TX to
Albuquerque NM. its nothing but winds and punky little semi mountains
with horrendous cross winds in the valleys. There are also some 6% grades
that will break your engine in real quick or break it down if you don't
get a running start.

I did not reply to this threath before because I did
not drive the van in windy conditions, until
yesterday. It was a crazy windy day here in Montreal.
So here it goes...

Last week, I went to Chris Turner's place to get a
complete westafia roof cut at the window pillars,
installed on a thule roof rack (the ones tall enough
for a passenger van, not the super tall ones for
westalia roofs).
