Easy...keep it parked!

Slow down
Coast whenever possible
Tow less weight (water tanks empty if possible)
Make sure tires are aired up to max pressure

And I think we saw their brother at a fuel stop last fall. The rear wall of the trailer had actually been *replaced* by a toyhauler ramp/door
It was a sight to behold.......
