How about no big dip or bump necessary for the TC to oscillate like a rocking horse. No concrete highway with expansion joints necessary. Just driving down the road. When I DID hit a big dip the cabover slammed into the cab roof.
What then IS porpoising?

I do t understand how a camper could porpoise unless ... you're just seeing the overhead part flex and think you're feeling it not just seeing it.
Lance 650? Doesn't take a lot of truck to haul it. What truck is it in and what is done to the rear suspension?

Whoa... let's consider what porpoising really is.
It is the frame of the truck flexing at or near the cab/bed location. All the weight of the camper in the bed causes to frame to flex when that weight is set into motion. 😞

smiley face aside, do you have anecdotal evidence to share or are you just being snarky for brand loyalty/dissing sake?

...COG plays big role here as well, so did you weight your truck empty and with camper to estimate COG?
