Mobile or manufactured homes could take this kind of wind with only cosmetic damage if they used adequate fasteners. The cost shouldn't be significantly more.

I have to disagree with your comment. I have been to the area, and the majority of the mobile homes were adequately tied down, and the floors remain in place. However, the entire upper structure were blown to bits.
