Anyone have any ideas on keeping this steering straight on windy Oklahoma days? I power up to stay straight. But when I slow down it's very difficult to get into close places to cove out on windy days. They say they have a beam of some sort that runs down the middle on bottom to help out some. We just bought this. We love it but it seems hard to handle at times. Any suggestions? Thank You

You must have a single engine model. You will get used to it but it will always be a wandering bear at low speeds.

OHB is correct they wonder all over the place. I found the faster the better. Do you have cable or power steering?
