Unified Tow Brake - Review
I want to review US Gear's Unified Tow Brake(UTB)because it gets badmouthed for being "complicated" and causing problems, often by folks that don't have one, and never have... one fellow on here adama...

I used the UTB on 2 vehicles over 27,000 miles and loved it. What I HATED was the price! Fortunately the second one was an unused kit I purchased from eBay.
These days I tow a Smart Car with an Easy Brake - it's more of a pain to install each time and I don't have the 'remote' braking capability of the USB (apply the toad brakes and not the motorhome brakes) which saved me on at least 2 occasions.
So yes, if you can afford it, the UTB is nice piece of kit and does what it says on the tin - but there are other options out there that do the same job adequately.
