Re: Trailer Sway - Two Thoughts

[DGreimel@aol.com]

Has anyone else noticed that trailers get easier to pull above about 73 MPH?
My last two, 14 and 24 ft. have both been that way.  I attribute it to wind 
drag. It seems as though the trailer "drafts" the tow vehicle. When towing my 
14' with an Astro Van I could reduce throttle preasure about 50% when we got 
past 73 MPH.
The present set up is a 24' towed with a pickup and is not as dramatic, but 
then the 454 doesn`t work very hard to begin with.
