Why are dual axle TTs made with the wheels in the middle?
Why don't you see trailers with tires at the four corners and a steer axle being in front, like an old toy Radio Flyer or even older Conestoga wagon?

Like our 28RLS Jayco, 2/3 of your trailer is in front of your trailer's axles. This makes for a very stable rig. Too many travel trailers have axles too far forward in an attempt to keep tongue weight down so unsuspecting buyers believe their lightweight tow vehicle can safely tow it within the TV's weight ratings. Then the quest for sway control begins. Your rig has one pivot point. A wagon type rig would alleviate the tongue weight issue but it would add another pivot point making backing the rig a challenge.
