I like sway bars. It’s true that if you’re loaded properly you shouldn’t need it. I’ve found they can be really nice in unexpected gusts of wind coming broad side.
i am new to towing so don't know what is typical/reasonable/usual. i have taken my foot off the gas if i feel sway (a little rocking back and forth?) and then accelerate again. but i am told the Trailer Stability Assist of my Ascent will grab at the opposite wheel. last tow there was a significant gust that i felt car/trailer "pushed" over but didn't feel any sway such as the rocking i described. so again just not sure what i should expect. i did have a significant head wind returning home and overall driving wasn't too disconcerting.
