I'll check the Nissan web site and see what they say but haven't seen anything yet.
Thanks for everyone's input.
No matter how your load is distributed, you will get a wiggle when the big rigs pass you due to the air pressure pushing on the side of your rig! That is normal. I am just ready for it when I see a Rig overtaking me in the passing lane. Not to worry!
