I actually test drove a friends 36' Airstream that was equipped with the Steer Safe. It drove good, but did not give me quite the level of stability the Safe-T-Plus does. However, the installation and tuning of the Safe-T-Plus was a little bit of work, and probably more than the Steer Safe.
Another thing I found while under there was the anti-sway bar end link bushing totally shot, so I replaced them with urethane bushing, which also made a huge difference in steering response.
I know this is not a realistic comparison, but the two improvements make the motorhome feel like a sports car, compared to how it felt before the improvements.
