Smoothest Trailer to tow

[Porterhouse]

The most important attribute for a smooth tow, especially at high speeds, is the size of the tow vehicle in relation to the size of the trailer. A good rule of thumb is that your tow vehicle should weigh more than your trailer. Also make sure that your trailer's load is distributed with 10-15% hitch weight. You won't need a weight distribution/sway control hitch if you follow these rules of thumb. Indeed, these hitches, while they make you feel like you're getting a stable tow, actually decrease your tow vehicle's handling ability, and they should be avoided.

That's 100% not true. A WDH transfers weight forward to the steering axle and rearward to the trailer axles resulting in better, not worse, handling.
