A tag axle typically improves directional stability of the coach. It seems to take a little more effort to turn away from a straight line than a coach without the tag. There is really little 'getting use to it'. If you try to back into a really tight space, it is best to dump the air (with an unloadable tag) or raise the tag is it is a liftable tag to take the stress off the tag and not skid its tires sideways on the pavement. I suspect there are folks here that have never dumped the air in their tag axle to maneuver. It takes much more time to get used to driving a longer coach than to a tag axle. There are few downsides to a tag axle on a well built, well designed coach. (I have seen some tags added to poorly designed motorhomes that were more of a band-aid than an integral part of the design.)
