You have a canvas cover for a 1102?

I have towed my vinyl covered M101s with no problems but your fuel economy goes south and fast.

Probably, due to age and high speed, the first weak point will give and then its gone. Most likely the beginning of an Allstate commercial; something like, "I'm a 20 year old military generator cover that has sat in the desert, and you expect me to hang on? mayhem.......

Depends on condition but it will stretch it at the front.
Not recommended, but if it was raining I would protect my contents and slow down to 55 or less.

Well, no allstate commercial, the tarp and bow kit appear BRAND NEW, no tears or abrasions at all. It did fine at up to 65 even though there was a windstorm on the pass today.

I have pulled a M1102 trailer with the tarp on it at 70 mph with no problems. Just make sure the buckles are tight.
