    ive always wondered why nobody does that with their mobile homes. seems like enough strapping would help minimize tornado damage if they were anchored deep enough

      You’ve gotta remember that most mobile home communities are folks who own their units renting the land for use. This guy has custom concrete anchors, which a mobile home community property owner probably wouldn’t want.

          Why would he care? He gets paid either way, so he’s not going to give a fuck. Now, change the law so that he has liability

      mobile homes are built like complete shit (mostly due to weight) so even if you strapped them they would probably still vanish at the sight of 80mph winds lol.
