How are DP w/Tag axle in inclement wather?
Traveling around the country you can run into bad weather even when the weather reports say everything is fine.. How does a diesel pusher with a tag axle handle itself with snow, ice and monsoon like ...

Never driven mine in snow but if it was deep enough I'd raise the the tag for more traction on the drive axle BUT mine will lower automatically if you get out of first gear. Now I have driven in heavy Fla rain without slowing down very much as hydroplaning is a function of speed, tire pressure and tread depth. Had almost new tires on the front at 100 psi and felt sorry for some of the cars I passed because of the amount of water I was throwing. The reason I did not slow down much was the WX radar was showing a bow echo headed my direction so I was able to out run it before it crossed the Interstate.
OP,having now put 60K miles on a tag axle coach there is NO WAY I'd buy one without a tag on 10 airbags. High cross winds or passing trucks are more common than heavy rain or snow and a tag axle coach handles that better than the previous MHs I've own with 4 and 8 airbags.
