So after all of the weight concerns and my weak Sunseeker engine, we bought a 2014 Ford Fiesta SE Hatchback. I weighed it today at 2520 lbs. I think this will be a more comfortable drive when pulling it with our MH.
With this light vehicle, can I get away with no breaking system?
Well Sir, the best and most accurate answer for you is go to a website that has all the towing laws pertaining to auxiliary braking in vehicles. While there are a few states that do not require them, the majority do. And, if and when you're traveling, are you going to plan a whole trip around a state that does not require them or, just simply install them in the onset and be done with it.
Take a look at the "Ready Brake". It's pretty darn simple to set up both in the original installation and, each time you go to use it. The bear part, it's real cheap too. I've set mine up so that it's not connected 24/7 to the brake arm of our toad. I don't like activating the cable needlessly. So, just some thoughts here. Good luck.
