There are several online retailers that sell Roadmaster equipment for far less than Camping World.

They have both Roadmaster and Blue Ox equipment
Before you get too enamored with the ReadyBrake system read your owners manual carefully. Some manufacturers caution against the use of surge brake systems. Here's a quote from the 2013 Winnebago Adventurer manual:
"We do not recommend the usage of a “surgestyle”
braking device. The usage of a surge brake
(especially when coupled with a hitch ball
located outside our recommended limits) places
excessive stress on the hitch. This abuse of the
ball mount and the hitch may cause premature
hitch assembly failure."
