Default steady fast update

guess I didn't state my original post very clearly.

This system stabilizes the trailer while camped, this is not for when in motion.

But since we are on the topic, I do notice a difference between the travel trailer and this 5th wheel.
Of course we are taking about 3000 lbs additional weight and a huge increase in wind load!

I use the Anderson Ultimate fifth wheel hitch, which is a whole lot lighter (and cheaper) than the conventional hitches. I think this has been discussed in other threads. I think it does an OK job, but there is a small amount of bucking now that I didn't have with the lighter TT.
