I'll commonly draft a truck in front us, but will hold far enough back to get the tail of the turbulence where I just feel it. Too close, and any MH will wobble back and forth - no amount of suspension work will fix it. That's too close at highways speeds anyway.
Side push/pull can be mitigated with suspension upgrades, but a lot of it is simply preparing for what is coming. This took me by surprise the first time I dealt with it, but don't much pay attention these days as it has become second nature.
The ones that will get you is the side gust when coming through a highway cut in a hill. Those have scared us more than once, particularly when ending up half-way in the other lane, or worse yet, in an adjoining lane.
Skivvy check!
