Interesting reaction when I tell RV friends that I'm thinking about buying a TM. They all immediately say they would never consider a travel trailer, too dangerous, unstable at highway speed, flip, jacknife and everything else evil.
Of course they are reacting to the reputation of traditional travel trailers. I explain what I read: light weight, low profile, WDH, and aft trailer axle make for a safe, stable ride in careful hands. (I even asked one of them if he knew the rollover injury rate for big Class A's with slideouts, compared to a good TV with stability control and a breakaway hitch. No reply.)
But I don't think they are very convinced. I briefly wondered if I was really trying to convince myself, not them, but am pretty sure I'm over it
.
Anything I can point them to (besides promotional material from the manufacturer -- always suspect) to reassure them and explain the differences?
