Single Axle travel trailers.
Wanting your opinions on single axle travel trailers. Background: Our first TT was a 16 foot Prowler, single axle. That single axle caused more than a few white knuckle moments for me, or at leas...

I have over 30,000 miles on my single axle KZ 200. I haven't had any issues with sway, semi's passing, strong winds, etc.
However, if I had a do-over, I'd go with two axles. I'd like to have more cargo capacity, and also think two axles would be better when a flat tire comes along.
I noticed several posters express concern regarding a blowout at speed with the single axle. Honestly it's not a big deal, all you feel is more drag on the truck motor and notice the trailer sitting a bit cockeyed in the rear view. Maybe if the entire wheel fell off it would be more exciting.
