[QUOTE="Tanis143, post: 3287843, member: 43724"] Yep, see 'naders do some impressive, scary as hell things. At the Oklahoma Natural History Museum there is a cast iron brake drum with a piece of wood through it. And those tests using 2x4's at 100 mph, thats just an F1 speed. An F5 STARTS at 261 MPH. They can't simulate that. Nor could they simulate a 2 ton vehicle slamming into that shelter at those speeds. Grendel, I can't give you any recommendations, but some of the things you need to ask is how water tight they are and how do they prevent the shelter from floating to the surface. After that I would look up the ratings of the different companies around you. [/QUOTE]
