Buddy Brake system ?
Hi there- Is the break buddy design to apply the toad vehicle breaks every time you apply your breaks on the MH? or this is only a break away system? Thank you all>>>

Of course this assumes you install it properly EVERY TIME YOU TOW, which is the biggest reason I don't like this type of system. Too easy to say "oh forget it" on a short trip. And later wish you had not.
Other systems, generally also work every time you apply the motor home brakes, but once installed they are "invisible" when not operating in towed mode. and thus since activating them is a few seconds, less likely to "Oh Forget It".
Being towing since 2003 and 52K miles and never had any problem. I do not know why you would be any different, unless you have a habit of slamming on the brakes every time you are coming up to a stop sign.
