Thanks everyone! My DH and I have different reasons for upgrade. He noticed some slight bending in trunion bars with weight of TT and has concerns that with age/wear, they could fail at some point if we hit a real big bump on highway. My reasoning is that when I have to share the drive during longer trips, I am white knuckling it down 195 and stress out/slow down when ever a tractor trailer is passing us(causes that feeling of getting sucked in that usually results in a little sway for a couple seconds). Specifically, the speed limit on I95 in North Carolina is 70 MPH and we stay about 10 MPH slower on average but everyone else blowing by us going so much faster, which causes me anxiety. I hate the thought of spending so much on PP or Hensley when we could probably just upgrade the trunion bars alone much cheaper but for me to feel less stressed about taking my turn driving, I have to give these expensive options some consideration or perhaps give up choosing destinations more than 4 hours away. Is it worth the expense for one or two longer trips south each year? I guess I have to think about this and make a decision.
Thanks again for the feedback!
