Am I just a chicken?

I am pulling a 25ft trailer with a GMC crewcab 1500 and it pulls fine on the back roads where traffic is not blowing by you. The interstate feels like I am just getting blown around. Driving under 65 and with proper setup hitch. I just don't understand, I see people pulling alot bigger trailers with the same truck.

    If your truck has P metric tires instead of LT tires, you could be experiencing the sidewall softness when the trailer gets pushed/pulled by traffic..

    Do you have separate sway control or is it included in your weight distribution hitch? Proper setup takes a lot of discomfort out of towing.

    My first guess is that your truck is not heavy enough compared to the TT.
