Is this post strong enough to withstand the force from a disgruntled plow driver doing 90MPH past your house??

We've had more snow than I have ever seen in my life this winter. I live dead center on a culdasac and it is still standing. I placed it over an existing 4x4 post from my previous mailbox. Very happy with the look and durability.

No I do not think the product is strong enough for this application. I would buy something more heavy duty.

It's pretty strong, I would think it will do the trick. Just make sure it is attached to the pole securely.

Not real bad. But if you have to completely rely on it to keep from falling. You might want to rethink it. I love mine. I have not really taken it cross country so to say. But messing around in my yard and garage it seems okay.

Definitely. It could withstand anything except something like a huge drop or being run over by a car.

I have those and they look ok strong. But I did not put close to 300 lbs on it... maybe 100-150 max so far, and it handled ok. So, good luck.

This mail box is constructed of three pieces or more. I don't believe there is a mailbox on the market that can stand up to a plow. This one does seem pretty sturdy ecsept for the handle breaking off. I recently filed the tabs on the door so it's easier to open. It took about thirty pounds of force to get the door open. Prob why handle broke off .

Yes,it is strong enough.....depending on the surface of the dash and the surface of what you want to hold.

The box is heaver than most and unless hit by the plow it should be able to take the punishment. It really does depend on how the base is constructed

I, wont take mine on the highway. Wont even plate it. I am not a qualified mechanic/trailer builder. I just use mine on the ranch, hauling tools and whatnot. Maybe if you are confident in your building skills it would be ok. To me it seems a bit small to pull down the road behind a pick up or car. Wheels are too small for me, also i dont think it has enough weight to keep it stable. For the road, and for safety, if it were me, i'd get something bigger. Just one mans opinion.

outdoors with engine running.. I doubt it.. I'd also guess the vibration and the like might break it

Apparently this has been tested and approved for 300 lbs why push the limit and cause an accident and possible injury !!

Yes. It would hold such a post. By the way, I've been very happy with the purchase! Good luck!

I am from Minnesota and on a plowed road for a mile I would do it. Not a real aggressive tire on it though.

I have a sportsman 570 and it is 700lbs dry so with fluids and me on it i am pushing over 900lbs and i have had no issues but like you I can see and feel them Flex. I wouldn't be concerned considering they are made of aluminum and by its nature has a lot of give and go compared to steel.

No, that won't happen, I ride about 1.5 miles on a very bumpy dirt road, with no problems. The one thing i can say is that if it is loaded heavy, it does change some of the ride characteristics at high speed. But it is very secure.
