I agree about turning WIDE when towing. My first Monty was 33 ft. It took me over a year before I stopped running over curbs on my turns. One piece of advice - I there is a turn lane and a break in the oncoming traffic, just go as far forward before starting to turn and then turn pretty sharply. That allows the wheels to clear a center curb before you start turning. Now if there isn't room to pull forward, you just have to be more careful.
And with all my curb run-ins my tires never blew out because of sidewall damage, so maybe I was lucky. Of course I use Michelin tires that are really solid - weigh about the same as Salins that is all the rage now.
