I had the M&G system installed at a dealer listed on M&G's web site in Riverdale, GA. I was there about 4 hours with Motor home and Suburban. It took one man about 20 minutes to put on the motor home part and another about 3 hours to do the Suburban. I did have the break away option installed. I have traveled about 1500 miles with the system and it is working perfect. No brake lines were disconnected during installation on the Suburban. Cost about the same as a Brake Buddy ($1100 with tax and install) and is so much easier traveling without the box in the floor. It takes about 3 seconds to hook up or disconnect.
I had a Brake Buddy for three years and it worked OK but was such a hassle to put in and take out. It also rattled when you put it in the back of the Suburban when not using.
I was unhooked from the motorhome for 4 days and decided to pull the break away pin on the Suburban to see if the air had leaked out of the M&G system. To my surprise the brakes applied on the Suburban.
I think I am going to love the system after having 4 different systems over the years nothing compares to the M&G after only 1500 miles. Hope I feel the same after 50,000 miles.
