tire issues on the?

Would appreciate folks who have dealt with this issue weighing in. I would like to look at toy haulers for possible full-time. Love the extra room/screened room/storage. My DH says "no". His problem? Loves everything about them but the size we'd be considering would have 3 axles. He thinks that would be a problem with the middle tire pivoting instead of going straight forward or backward. Tires aren't made to go sideways. Comments?

    Yes it's an issue, but you learn to take wider corners as you drive. The reality is that triple axle owners haven't reported major problems over the years. It can cause some premature tire wear, but I can't say I've seen frequent posts about issues from it.

    Yes, you get increased tire scrub with a triple axle trailer. I have learned to try to not turn as tight whenever possible.
