And yet we have an entire thread (can't find it at the moment) to dumb things people have done to their campers and yet they survive.
Driving a FWC with roof in wedge mode?

As expensive as these campers are, I personally would not even think about traveling in one without lowering the roof all the way and latching down the hatches.
The operative word in your statement is "think". When I have done dumb things, thinking was rarely involved!

The clutch on my mental gears is slipping more and more as I age.

Felt a little sluggish, right?
Actually not that I noticed. I have a full-size diesel. But as we were driving along about 15 minutes after leaving the house, I remembered not doing the front latches and my heart sunk. I asked my wife in a panic to try and look up from her window to see if I was correct and sure enough I was. We were at a stretch of highway that I am very familiar with and knew that I had about 4 miles to go before there was a safe spot to pull off, so I immediately slowed down below 50 and began emitting the involuntary shame sighs. The nice lady in the horse trailer that I had passed a few miles before came up behind and passed us in the fast lane, honked her horn and pointed up. I gave the universal timid hand wave, nod, and shoulder slump sign for "Thank you, I already know." I was glad that I am a courteous driver, because it would have been 10 times more embarrassing if I had passed her earlier like a maniac.

Besides the fact that driving around in "wedge mode" has gotta look pretty funny.
