However, it isn't as dramatic as moving into another lane as OP claims. Hope this helps.
When's the last time you drove a large car or a box disguised as a vehicle designed in the '80s? I spent 5 years driving this in 20+ mph gusts:




The 86 is great in the wind, but it follows every rut in the road like you're on train tracks. That truck was like a sailboat in comparison (in more ways than how it handled wind).
