Thanks Goldencrazy and FloridaFrancis. You said you were following our escapades with the Escape. What a mess. That car was RED and really pretty, but we ended up actually liking the Honda better after we got it.
The Honda weighs 3400 pounds, so 1000 more than the Miata (hope that doesn't present a problem) We are keeping all the tow gear on the Miata just in case.
We have the Brake Buddy system for the Miata and have NEver used it and never felt like we needed it. We are going to go with the Ready Brake system for the CRV. The added weight will require the braking system to be on all the time in most states. That Ready Brake requires you to do nothing. Just hook the wires up and go. We like that better than the Brake Buddy. I;ll just put the Brake Buddy on Craigs. Shouldn't have a problem, it has never been used.
