Various Rv types and wind

Just too many factors that affect how a rig handles in wind and semi push. I've owned two trailers, a 28' Sunline with a Hensley hitch (Dodge gas dually)and a 27' Winnebago Minnie with a 4 Point Equalizer (Toyota Tundra) hitch and both were very stable on the road, even in crosswinds. Our Bay Star does get some semi push, but does pretty well in cross winds. I've just added a steering stabilizer to help....haven't driven it on a long trip yet to evaluate its effectiveness. But, if there are high wind warnings, I'll keep it parked!

Trailers: It's about weight distribution in the trailer, quality of hitch and anti-sway system and size, wheelbase, etc. of the tow vehicle.

Fifth wheel: Seems that few folks have trouble unless they have an undersized truck. But...I have no experience with this category.

Class C and Class A: weight, wheelbase, weight distribution, tires, tire pressure, aftermarket gear to improve performance (Summo springs, stabilizer, shocks, track bars, CHF (cheap handling fix), and ??

And, I'm sure I've missed some factors....you could write a book on the topic!

Our Class A is somewhat affected by wind but not to the extent that our class C was. Our class C was 30 ft and between the wind and trucks passing, it was work to keep straight!

I've had 3 TTs from 20ft to 27ft towed with 3 different TVs.

They have all been affected to some degree by side winds. However, I've found
that the longer the TV, the less it is affected by the winds. My current TV is
the longest wheelbase I have owned and even semi's do not bump me around.

Not sure if wheel-base affects Class Cs to the same degree.

I do try not to drive in a cross wind though, it makes for a tiring day.

Sure, I feel crosswind with my small(ish) setup - 21ft TT towed by F250 super duty. Doesn't really bother me, just reminds me the TT is back there.

Those campers that "roar" by you will end up with blown tires, off the road, and/or having a chat with the nice trooper on the side of the highway. Don't let them bother you.

Oh, and they'll be paying a small fortune for the horrible fuel mileage they are getting!

Rig is solid as a rock, crosswinds, semi's no problem but I am basically driving a class 8 truck .

I used to have a 96 35' Southwind with tag axle. Crosswind would not bother it at all. One time with 35' 5th wheel during a driving rain storm with cross wind I could see the 5er swaying back and forth. Now it was not a lot but still did happen. Now in my 30' class A (the lightest of all) I do notice the cross wind. However it was not enough to stop going down the road. Yes people pass me as I go 60-65 on interstates but at that speed I feel under control of the rig.

We try to avoid heavy cross winds but at least between TT and 5er...it's night and day better with the 5er.

I suspect a lot of lower end MH handle pretty horrible in normal conditions, so a big cross wind can make it a challenge.

We try not to drive with a 25 mph crosswind. We can do it, you do feel it in our 22,500 lb class A, but it makes for a tiring day.

Probably a little of both reasons.

generally, the heavier the rig the more stable it is. our first ckass a MH (1985 26’) was pretty light and we got pushed around pretty good. now, 38’ 12-ton class a. still happens but not nearly as often.
