For the braking system, what I would love to see is a cable that plugs into the RV's 7-pin, running into the cab of the toad, into a box. Another cable from the box would go into the OBD port (or maybe the factory port under the dash for the brake controller). That box would use the vehicle's electronic braking system, already in place for the adaptive cruise control, to brake and illuminate the brake lights and signals. Anyone know if this exists?
We tow our 2 door 2015 Jeep Rubicon behind our 2016 Chateau, 33' long and do not use a braking system and have had no issues. We use the Blue Ox tow bar which is easy to attach. We have gone on some steep roads, up and down and no issues not having a braking system for the tow bar
