Apparently you missed that class in Physics where it was taught that the faster you go in an enclosed vehicle the more negative air pressure builds inside the vehicle. In turn this will result in the vehicle becoming more narrow as the external relatively higher pressure combined with the relatively lower negative internal pressure makes the vehicle smaller. So, the answer is to simply put your foot to the floor!😬 Bill 2 1 2023 Ford F150 Lariat 3.5EB FX4 Max Towing, Max Payload, 2016 Oliver Elite II - Hull #117 "Twist" Near Asheville, NC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that if you accelerate to much in the going back mode, you end up in the future... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the backup camera and no wobbling mirror extenders I was glad the Oliver was no wider. Guess I am glad when going down some narrow streets and in traffic too. I agree with your thoughts. I like the fact that our OE2 is narrow enough to ride nicely in the slip stream of our F-150. 1 TV: 2019 F-150 SuperCrew Lariat, 3.5L EcoBoost, 10 Speed Trany, Max Tow, FX-4, Rear Locker OLLIE: 2018 OE2 Hull 342, Twin Bed.

I think that they were able to pack so many functional features into 7 feet width is the best feature of all. A little turn I can see my tires, and marker lights. Going down the road everything looks like a normal drive, until I look in the rearview mirror. Then all of a sudden there is a big white object tailgating me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
