Does it wobble side to side or front to back?? Get your other half to check the tyres on the van. There might be a bulge in the tread also check the tow socket on the van for loose bolts.

Check that when you load up the heavier items are placed across the axel and not placed in front or back of van.

Hi Cathy,

A lot of people have fitted a stabliser bar to their van for just this reason.

Even with a stabliser fitted if a high sided vehicles pass you or its a open wind part of the road all van wobble a little or even a lot if badly loaded.  If its only a slight wobble and your hubby feels safe driving and its not pulling the car it will be OK. When you do get a serious snake on you will BOTH know.

Are you sure a big lorry didnt go past and "suck" your van into its wake??  That can be scary

We had a unit snake on us a long time ago and you never forget it so i know how you feel but if your husband is happy then i am sure you are like me and over react to every bump and sway so my advice is... a dose of vodka, wine or whisky (or all three might make you feel a bit sick though but at least you will have something else to worry about) one hour before you leave. If your tee total than ipod on and relaxation music and let him get on with towing it.. or sit in the back and sleep..  

Seriously though if you have always packed the unit the same and you have checked your nose weight at the start then it was probably as people have said above.

good luck i will be thinking of you..glad i am not the only nervous passenger!!! our poor husbands must go through hell LOL !
