towing trailer wake from RX opinions ??
say, my maiden voyage on the highway will be soon. is the air behind the vehicle good, or normal ?? not sure how much of a test run i'll get before hitting the highway.
dragging a motorcycle on an open trailer. probably not the usual use of an rx, lol just curious peoples observations, hate to blow the windscreen off 10 miles down the road.

If it can stand it on the open road (not on a trailer) you’ll be fine.
Looks like you you don’t have enough drop on your hitch and the trailer is angled up which can create an issue. Maybe just the camera perspective making it look more tilted than it really is, but generally trailer should be flat.

its pretty close, few inch drop, 4? don't recall, angle looks funny too in the picture. setup has been on well over 10k miles at that angle, and the or rx hitch height is lower i think. parking has a slight rake to it also

looking above not perfect, was between 4 and 6, this is 4. the trailer was weighed for tongue weight, adjusting the chock with the bike for the % i wanted, so for sure thats good. 
75lbs or so.
friend towed one behind an escalade and blew the power windshield apart, oops,
