Joe-FL we put on the Roadmaster mainly in an attempt to make our coach as safe as possible in the event of a front end blowout. I watched a couple of videos of a coach crash resulting from a front end blowout and allowed that the $350 was fairly cheap to help me deal with that problem. I also remind myself (while driving) "don't stomp on the brake" if I sense a blowout. Not sure how much it helps with driving but the only other change I've done is the CHF. I feel very comfortable on interstates at 65-70 mph up to a 20 MPH wind. At 25 MPH, I am not liking it. At 30 MPH - I am parking it (the great part about being retired - rarely on a fixed schedule). Passing trucks have virtually no influence. I have logged about 34,000 miles in 2 years at the wheel of 2 different motorhomes. The last 28,000 miles in our Challenger - the 252" wheel base and a 22.5" tires are the principle reason we upgraded.

Just our 2 cents.
