I have found that you can get along pretty well for short trips. It is the long ones that tire me out. So for cities and 300 miles or less I have the Born Free and the Foretravel for the rest.
Don't see how this could be? Every Foretravel I've ever driven made you work fulltime keeping it in it's own lane. This includes new ones. That'll wear you out. The Born Frees are as others have said; exactly like driving a van - a very comfortable driving and seating area too.
I had to register to comment here.
My Foretravel u320 is 17 years old and after the front wheel bearings were re tightened after 110k miles and the tire pressure adjusted correctly for the actual weight on the axles the max steering wheel movement other than intense cross wind bursts was a half inch at the outside of the wheel.
No dead spot. Steering Pittman arm to drag link needs to be tight of course.
I move closer to the center of the road when a flat nosed truck is coming the opposite way just for noisy fun sometimes.
Show up in so cal and I will take you for a ride.
The Allison xtrader is the bomb. Works on cruise control. Plus big air disk brakes. And aquahot. 1997 model.
