Sway control? That's different. Some folks will say "I have a big truck and have towed 30ft trailers for a million miles and never needed sway control". Maybe. Sway control is like insurance. You can drive a million miles and never make a claim. Do you decide you don't need insurance because you've never had an accident? One day that teen age girl who's texting rear ends your sedan and totals it out. Her insurance isn't adequate to cover the damages. You decided you didn't insurance. What now?
Sway control is like that, you don't need it until you need it. And compared to what you spend on everything else, sway control costs almost nothing.
