I am not opposed to the upgrades if it will make a SIGNIFICANT difference I guess.

I have pulled boats and snowmobile trailers for 30 years and am very comfortable in all conditions..... wind, heavy truck traffic, snow, etc. I can back into any spot without an issue.

When I bought my first Class C last year I expected there to be a difference even though it was shorter than some of the trailers I have towed. Maybe things have gotten worse over the years but I never expected it to be a white knuckle driving experience every time I was behind the wheel.

Wind or heavy trucks pushing me out of my lane.... front end wandering..... feeling top heavy.... poor ride comfort.... etc.

When I changed sway bars, replaced the stock damper and added SumoSprings, it was a SIGNIFICANT difference is handling and ride comfort.

It’s a joy to drive now and was well worth the money. Wish I didn’t have to spend it but it was worth it.
