Fortunately the 2017 Sportage SX AWD handles well…..
I was driving behind a pickup truck with an 8 foot folding ladder in the bed….
Unfortunately it flew out at about 55 MPH…..
Fortunately the SX handles very well during evasive actions…..
I was very happy with the outcome….

There is an exit that leads to my road (Quincy exit going west on C470 for those that live close by) and it has two twists in it... the first is a bit more aggressive than the second. I'll take the first one at 60mph in my optima but haven't quite had the balls to push the Sportage up to that... 58/9 was the most. The second I'll do 60-65 in both cars. The sport suspension in the SX is freaking awesome. Very little role, tires stay planted.... couldn't be happier.

EEEKKK, I hate when those kind of things happen! Hard on the nerves, glad you and ride came thru without harm! IF it had caused damage, a charge for unsecure load is on the NY DMV "books".
