Paul:
My remarks on longer wheelbase tow vehicles being more stable are directed only to "bumper pull" trailers that attached at, under or just behind the rear bumper. Gooseneck trailers are a whole different story because the connection point is just forward of the rear axle and thus far more stable than any bumper pull trailer. I don't know whether the tow vehicle wheelbase makes much difference with a gooseneck trailer because I don't have much expereince with goosenecks. Bob won't be pulling a gooseneck with his Townie unless he installs mid-body height rear sunroof. :)
