I noticed the same thing with our Cougar 329TSB behind our F150 For sure it is a big sailand we have the 5.5 foot bed so with the generic WDH from UltraFab and 2 friction sway bars everything pushed us around n ccomeing up on the rear of the trailer but cars were worse than both minivans/SUV`s and the semi`s were the least of the worries. When a passing vehicle got up to the front of the the TV the only thing that would push us were large MH or semi's (the bow wave effect hitting our nose) but it was minimal at best.
Once we switched to our PullRite hitch which pivots 4 inches behind the diff cover we have no more sway period from anything and no sway control needed. The only thing wenotice now is the same bow wave comeing off semi's that will push the front of our TV its minimal so not a concern.
Always wondered why it felt this way. Never felt it with any trailer that I pulled before but then again they were all under 25' I think it is mostly from the rear overhang being so long rear of the wheels but that just my oppinion
