Does anyone ever experience buffeting on the interstate with mild winds?.....

I went North on 65 today and seemed to be moving around quite a bit.....Is this just the way a Pony rides,or is there something I can do and make the car stick better.

Most times if I approach a Tractor Trailer and cut from left to right behind him to pass,I get some fairly strong turbulence....

am I just imagining this or is it happpening?

I get a bit more than I had in say my '97 Grand Prix.
I think that it is just the way the cars are.

Yep. All from the size/setup of the car. My fullsize truck isn't affected near as much as my fox body...

You need one of these!! It will help channel the wind and use it in a more efficient manner.

I noticed that when I got my Panhardbar the alot of that "shimmy" was eliminated, granted stronger gusts will still move the car a bit, but that turbulence is less noticable!
