Certainly not saying you're wrong, but I'm having trouble accepting that if you're driving 60mph and at a given spot on the road you slam on the brakes to mimic a crisis stop, that you're going to be stopping in the same distance with the tow vehicle only or with a tow vehicle + long trailer that is likely close to or possibly over their limits. Just doesn't work for me.

It does if your trailer brakes are dialed in properly and brake controller is working properly. I have 'tested' it in real life and was surprised how quickly I did (could) stop. Now the stuff inside the trailer definitely shifted a lot...but that is a different lesson learned:)
