Is there any way of improving the ride in windy conditions or is this the nature of the beast? I have heard of anti-sway bars(i know it has some), is there a specific "special" brand and will they help? The thing is a hand full sometimes in the wind, look like a drunk driver!! LOL..Sorry if someone else asked this question already, I looked for the search feature.

What you're experiencing is probably just due to the side profile of the vehicle (it's rather large and flat) coupled with a slightly narrow track width. In other words, just the nature of the beast.

If you're really bothered by the sway, you can look into putting on larger diameter sway bars...but your 03 has a sway bar front and rear. If they are both connected up properly and the bushings are still good....then there is really not much to do.
