Hi Claude
I drive my 151 with the 416 behind it on the highway when I cant avoid it
and the trailer does not lift up by any passing vehicles. This is also true
with my Soviet GAZ copy of the US M416 also. However the semis will almost
blow you off the road with the speed they go trailer or no trailer. It is a
bad place to be if you can avoid it. I try to take the secondary roads if
poss.

the wind gust lifts the trailer up. Then the jeep may roll over and cause
an accident.
