Most RV owners expect a learning curve with any new hitch. What they don’t expect is how fast everything feels different.
Ask almost any first-time ProPride 3P® Hitch owner about their very first tow, and you’ll hear the same thing:
“I knew it was better within the first mile.”
That immediate difference isn’t hype. It’s the result of true trailer sway elimination—and it changes the towing experience in ways many owners didn’t realize were even possible.
The very first thing new ProPride owners notice is how connected the rig feels.
Instead of:
The trailer simply follows the tow vehicle.
This happens because the ProPride 3P® eliminates the free pivoting that causes sway. When the trailer can’t swing side to side, it tracks naturally—like an extension of the vehicle instead of a separate force.
For many RVers, passing semis are the most stressful part of towing.
First-time ProPride owners quickly notice:
Even in strong pressure waves, the trailer stays planted.
This is where trailer sway elimination becomes unmistakable. Without sway starting, there’s nothing for the driver to fight.
One of the most surprising changes happens at the driver’s hands.
On the first tow, owners realize:
Many describe it as “one-hand driving again”—not because they’re careless, but because the rig no longer demands constant attention.
This reduction in micro-corrections is a major reason fatigue-free towing becomes possible.
Crosswinds usually force drivers to:
With the ProPride 3P® Hitch, first-time users often comment that:
The physics are simple: without a rear pivot point, wind can’t initiate sway.
Another immediate difference appears during braking.
Instead of:
New ProPride owners feel:
This stability builds trust in the rig almost instantly.
Perhaps the most important change isn’t mechanical at all.
On the very first tow, owners often realize:
When you’re not constantly anticipating sway, your brain exits fight-or-flight mode. That’s why many owners say the first ProPride tow feels calm—even on familiar roads.
This realization comes quickly.
Common first-tow reactions include:
Many experienced RVers discover that what they accepted as “normal towing” was actually constant compensation for instability.
The ProPride 3P® Hitch doesn’t rely on:
It changes the towing geometry itself.
By projecting the pivot point forward, the hitch prevents sway from starting, which is why the benefits are noticeable within minutes—not months.
After that first tow, most ProPride owners agree on one thing:
“This is how towing should have felt all along.”
The confidence, control, and reduced fatigue aren’t learned behaviors—they’re the result of a towing system that finally works with physics instead of against it.
The first tow with a ProPride 3P® Hitch isn’t about adjustment—it’s about relief.
When trailer sway is eliminated:
And for first-time owners, that realization starts almost immediately—often before the first fuel stop.
