Scotty... have you had any issues with trailer sway? Thanks
Only when it's a super windy day. You gotta keep the trailer sway brake pretty tight and the trailer brake control sensitivity and strength higher.

Seems like a lot of options out there these days. Not sure I will ever get one... but I'd be happy with a small one with a shower/bathroom, fridge, sink, stove, and full/queen bed, and ac/heater.

What brake control sensitivity do you use normally, and what during very windy conditions

It depends on what brake controller you have. They're all different. You'll have to play around with it. FYI...You want the trailer braking slightly before the truck, but not locking up the trailer brakes (it's a feel thing). I would guess cross winds exceeding 20-25mph will give you some trailer sway. Also, I run my solid load leveling bars at the fifth chain loop from the end of the chain (four loops hanging free).
