Isn't the Readybrake baiscally a surge brake? One thing I've always been concerned about in a surge brake is burning up the brakes on a long down hill grade. Seems like the tow brakes would be activiated continiously.

..This is one of those 'urban myth' type things, that was true many years ago with surge brake systems, but is not true with modern surge brake systems.
I do know for a fact (as I have personally witnessed, tested with mine), that the Readybrake system is designed to prevent brake dragging from ever happening. I have watched our brake light indicator on the MH dash when descending long downhill grades. Only time Readybrake engages the brake, is when I hit the MH brakes. And, thats with a 4500 lb minivan for a toad. :)
