    I've used one, but I've never towed a heavy load not using one and have very little experience so I'm of no help.

    The other day I saw a decommisioned ambulance towing a trailer in I -76 and thought it would be OBC, but when I pulled up next to him, it was some other dude.

    I expect to be towing some heavier loads in the future so when I bought the WD kit, I chose one that had the extra sway control option.

    Hell, for all I know it put mine to shame and that's cool too.

    I know mine works really well for me.

    I did see a really odd "box" manufacturer vehicle the other day though. Mounted on a 2WD F series, 7.3 power stroke.

    Slant side utility box that was extra tall and extra long as well. Shit ton of exterior compartments. Never seen anything like it before, I was looking for a brand on it, but there was nothing to indicate the builder origin.
