Cat can you explain this or post a link? I'm new to fifth wheels and I've heard that but not sure I understand this properly.

Also, I've pulled my tractor/backhoe (25HP) with a 2 axle utility trailer pulled by a Dodge Grand Caravan down i75. I've had some sway issues at first but there is some serious learning. Keeping the weight balanced and a little to the front, Keep your center of gravity low makes a big difference. The best thing just so happened to be adding a weight distribution hitch. The sway went away.
It also does very well when pulling with my Dodge RAM 2500. With the WDH you don't even notice it's back there.

BTW I'm not recommending pulling a trailer with the Dodge Grand Caravan, but it has not failed me even in the mountains.
