Trip starts in TN thru MO, KS, CO, UT, AZ, CA, OR, WA, ID, MT, WY and back to TN.
A Safe-T-Plus was down a ways on my consideration list because previous windy weekend outings had me seriously thinking about what might make my Axis enjoyable to drive. Experience with one on a former class C E350 chassis didn't thrill me.

I felt the worst trait causing constant correction was tail-wag-the-dog ... so a Trac-Bar and alignment were top of my list of potential things to do & check first. The alignment wasn't crazy off and in the end, caster was increased a bit over a degree into the +5 range.

Anyway... I just got back from an outing and there was plenty of wind for comparison! It was surprisingly a pleasure to drive! Night & Day difference. So nicely connected to the road I'm done thinking about further handling mods because the wild ride is gone!
