Think of it as a two wheeled robot. It would sway from side to side because of all the weight.
Don't you think?

We used some variation of a 3-wheel drivetrain in 2003, 2006, 2007, and 2008. No tips.
Edit: Actually, that is not exactly true. In 2003, our robot screamed around and up the ramp on two wheels to unstack the totes in about 6 seconds during automous. But that was tipping on purpose!
