After reading your post I viewed all the video's and reviews! I ordered and receive 80 of them per my measurements @ $ 2.75 each! I needed 78 to complete the installation! We drove 320 miles to our daughter's home in Panama City, Fl. a few days later! I was elated @ the stability upgrade that I noticed! We have traveled the same roads many times while towing our TM! Wind caused tail wagging at higher speeds and abrupt steering adjustments above 60 would have the same effect! Road conditions caused some instability and tail wagging! With the Airtabs the TM tracks straight as an arrow! I even sped up to 65 on the worst parts of the road and purposely went over the crown and back to test handling and was overjoyed at the steadiness through it all! I didn't notice any difference in fuel economy, My mpg stayed the same! I'll post pictures! To me they are worth every penny!
