My decision came down to simplicity of the system and ease of making ready to tow. In my research of tow laws in various States, I wouldn’t even need a braking system in at least 31 States as the Spark only weighs 2200 lbs. However, I would never tow without a braking system for safety reasons, so I decided to go with a simple surge brake tow bar. I am installing a Blue Ox base plate, a wireless tow light kit and the Ready Brake tow bar with safety cables and break away kit. It also has a dash mounted light sensor in the coach, so I know if the toad brakes are being applied. We will be going on a two week trip to Texas and Arkansas next month, so we’ll see how it all works.

I also have a Spark and look forward to hearing how your trip goes. If you don't mind, may I ask how much you paid to have your system installed and how many hours it took them to do this? Thanks
