Having said that, I experienced incredible winds on the first day I picked up the van (interstate) and I was a bit worried about the movement, but having got through that extreme day, everything is now a breeze and feels very stable.
Fuel consumption goes from approx 8.8 to 14 litres per 100Klm and the cruise control is more or less useless when towing such weights. It nonetheless tows very well. As a trial I hooked up another van at approx 3.5 tonne and it was not pleasant on country roads.
