Toad / Tow Brakes
Thanks to all who replied. After considering all, I ordered the US
Gear Unified Tow Brake UTB-1000 from pplmotorhomes.com on sale for
$895 (usually $1295).

For those of you with the Unified Tow Brake, there is a new upgrade
for better feedback inside the motorhome.
It is:
Provides a visual and audible alarm in the coach when the towed
vehicles brakes are applied and they shouldn't be.
Protects against brake damage in the towed vehicle.
Compatible on towed vehicles where brake lights function when the
ignition is off.

$95 trade in: http://www.usgear.cc/magazine/utb_pm6002.htm
