When Mike Duncan was at FWC as a salesperson, that's when Ben was the owner, Mike told me that he got Ben to drive down the interstate at 60+ mph to see what would happen while mike rode in the back. It held up very well. They did not endorse that people do it. But on many occasions I would drive around short distances with it up. Just did not need to pop down then just to pop up again to dry out the canvas siding for the day.

Pretty sure Simimike drives around LA on the freeways with his top up all the time.

That was my good friend Ike. He drove a couple of miles at 65 MPH with the top up and had no damage. These campers can take a pretty good wind with no problem.
