Re: [A/S] Truck Pushing Sensation



Normally I don't even do this unless I happen to see a
truck approaching that is overtaking me at a high rate
of speed.  What I'm attempting to do by accelerating a
little is to make sure I'm in a situation where I'm
pulling the trailer rather than being in a coasting
mode or having the trailer pushing me.  

The A/S with my Reese dual cam sway control handles
things well....maybe not like a Hensley but I'm
satisfied.  If you have ever pulled a square sided
trailer (I have) the effect of a truck passing the
square sided trailer and an equivalent sized A/S using
the same sway equipment is quite different.
