Talking to a mate the other day and he told me the following story that happened to his brother--
Brother complained that his Patrol had no pulling power with the new 16' van hooked up, surged up to 60km easy enough but wouldn't pull past without huge amounts of right pedal, mate goes for a drive with his brother and yep, nothing in the go faster bag after 60kays or so.
It's only when they pull up that mate's wife who was following in their car suggests they check the pop top clamps. Seems that at 60 kms pop top was doing what it does best and popping up at the front, every time they stopped it would fall down so wasn't obvious but otherwise was acting like it wanted to enter into the Sydney to Hobart!
Have actually seen that happen on a few occasions now. Told a bloke in Mandurah WA that his front clips were undone, can't understand why he didn't feel the drag.
