If you can afford the cost then I don't think it is overkill at all. A small trailer can really whip a larger tow vehicle around under the right circumstances. If it were me, I would get another Hensley and tow comfortably under all conditions and without worry.

Agree as well.
There really is no comparing any "Return to center" and "Friction" based WDH to the Hensley and Propride because they do not change the mechanics of the pivot point (hitch ball).
The Hensley and Propride are the ONLY WDH option that mechanically change the pivot point of the trailer (projecting it forward = virtual pivot point projection).
They both have problems and can be a serious PITA! But they are in a class of their own and incomparable to other WDH's.
Comment on dealers and the HA/PP, its true. How do you think they can move your trailer with their fork lift having that contraption attached to the coupler? They cannot.
