Having lived in Kansas for most of my life I am very familiar with the crosswinds described by Cat320. I agree having too little pinweight or too much pinweight can make the situation worse. As I understand it, keeping pinweight between 20% and 25% of the trailer total weight pretty much eliminates that problem. With our 3295RK's 3300 pinweight we were at 22% and it was a very stable tow. With this 3400RL our 2860 pinweight is just 19.6% of the total but after just 1400 miles of towing, including some nasty crosswinds and headwinds, it doesn't seem to be a problem. I think, based on seat of the pants, the extra pinweight of the 3295 actually aided stability of the truck and rig as a whole. However, the 3400 tows beautifully, too.
