I agree that will work, but you are always taking a risk when you bank
on the trailer's brakes to stop you. If the trailer brakes fail for any
reason, that 1 ton truck is NOT going to stop the deuce behind you. I
prefer a towing vehicle that outweighs the towed vehicle and can stop
the whole show, by itself. Jim
