Often, we substitute clear thinking for a quick fix or a shortcut to save a little time and money. Often, we instinctively know that we are not doing the right and safest procedure when preparing an Airstream trailer for a road trip. Even worse, we, many times, just skip completely an important safety piece of equipment because we feel “nothing bad will happen to me”. Well, guest what? Bad does happen and most of the time bad thinks could have been prevented.

Today, add on safety equipment is available and easy to install. The work “sway bar” is an important part of trailering and a component of safe weight distribution for the truck pulling the trailer and the trailer itself.

Your objective should be consistent weight distribution to prevent sway before it starts. Weather conditions are always a concern and need to be checked and re-checked consistently during a haul.

One must prevent “sway” in all weather conditions and familiar components always monitored for secure fits and well-maintained fittings.

We have safety information and suggestions for all different sized couplers.

  • In Loving Memory of Eugene James Magre

    June 25, 1947 – July 25, 2025

    Eugene “Gene” James Magre, of Midway, Utah, peacefully completed his earthly journey on July 25, 2025, at the age of 78. Born on June 25, 1947, in White Plains, New York, Gene led a rich and remarkable life—one marked by boundless creativity, determination, love, and connection.

    Gene shared an extraordinary bond with his wife, soulmate, and dearest friend, Jacqueline Magre. Their partnership was a testament to enduring love—steadfast, joyful, and deeply rooted. Together, they didn’t just build a life—they created a world full of dreams, laughter, and unwavering devotion.

    A visionary and true entrepreneur, Gene approached life with energy and imagination. Never one to sit still, he constantly chased ideas, built ventures, and inspired those around him to dream bigger. His passion wasn’t just for progress—it was for purpose. He sought not only success, but meaning, and generously shared both with the people he held dear.

    Gene is survived by his beloved wife, Jacqueline; his sister, Holly Maggio; his niece, Dana Maggio; and a wide circle of friends who became his chosen family. His legacy lives on in the stories, laughter, and lasting impact he left on every heart he touched.

    In Gene’s spirit, we picture him with a glass of wine in hand—smiling, toasting, and sending love to all of us left behind. Until we meet again.

    One more day,
    One more time,
    One more sunset, I’d be satisfied…
    But then again, I know what it would do—
    Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you.

    Cheers, Gene. Here's to the next great adventure.
