    Vans are known to roll over if you turn or swerve too fast.

    Hubby put a RoadMaster system on ours years ago when we were hauling RV. Also for more safety.
    It cost over $500 but well worth it. Stopped all that swerving of RV.

    42 second video.

    Watch at least first two minutes of video. It is amazing how well this has worked for us. Hubby installed it in just a few minutes.

    Our RV was all over the place till he put i9t on van.

    Closest thing to a motorhome we had was my Skoolie aka school bus and I think I actually loved that bus.o_O
    I felt safe in that bus ,we Skoolies at Skoolie.com called motrohomes and RVs sticks and staples, maybe because we couldn't afford on,lol.

    Pictures of our bus,

    That is a nice looking Mazda. Give us a review after you have had it awhile. There is a Mazda dealership down the road that is not too far from me. The reports I have read say they handle really well and their interiors are all upscale looking for even the cheaper models.

    Teresa it is the only non life form I ever cried over losing. For 3 years I'd see a Shorty bus and feel bad.
