You have the brake buddy controller already set up in both the RV and Jeep? Seems kinda expensive. . . But if you like it that way, you can use the Jeep to tow a car say to the service station, and then have one vehicle to get back home, or do shopping or sightseeing while you have the other serviced.

It might work out well if they do not have a 'drive you back home service.'

Many service stations will take time out to drive you back home. Say your brakes are pulling to the left, and the service station wants to take your car for a test drive. They might as well drive you home if it is within about 2 miles, and they will know what is going on by the time they reach your home, drop you off, and go back. THey can call you with a estimate. Then call to see if you are home, drive the car back to your house once repaired, and pick you up. Now if the distance is more than about 15 miles, they probably will not do this, unless they have some high school kid willing to make the 1/2 hour long drives to and from homes.. .

I have towed my Manx dune buggy with my Ford edge several times. The Manx dune buggy is only about 1,500 pounds, so no braking system is needed when towed by the Edge @ 4,200 pounds. I can tow either with my motorhome. But not both at the same time. . .


Have fun camping!

Money can't buy happiness but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a

Porsche or Country Coach!



If there's a WILL, I want to be in it!



I havn't been everywhere, but it's on my list.
