Pickup truck tow vehicle stability tests
Always lots of anecdotal statements on rv.net around dual wheel vs single rear wheel "stability". Anyone have any links that point to actual testing results under controlled conditions?

Nope, but we can't all be like you and your apple to oranges logic.
Provide a link that actually applies to the physics being discussed, not the physics in your mind. But hey if you think it really applies....
There is very little in that link that actually applies to the differences in SRW vs DRW in normal driving... getting rid of tailgaters aside.
I'm an old Engineer..at almost 65, got my degree quite some time ago, so guess things have changed since then. I like that, "Physics in my mind":)...don't use some of the physics like I used to when I was in designing, (ie, R&D), but not much has changed in the world of physics for quite some time.
I'm tiring of the discussion, you can win this one, seems like you need it more than I do...I know what I know from a lot of research and lot of towing over the last 40 years, but it used to be, "experience speaks volumes",, or "experience is the best teacher", just doesn't apply in some places......believe what you want....I know the same numbers you do...but guess it's "all in my mind", (thank the Lord it's still working:)).
