Anymore today you are Damed if ya do and damed if you don't it has come down to the fact that that anyway to get a dollar out of ya they will find it . Back a couple years ago i told a bunch of guys that they needed acdl to drive there one ton's pullen there owen trailrs haullen there pullen tractors and they did not believe me TILL ONE GOT NAILED on the turn pike they impounded his truck trailer and tractor towed it to and impound lot and he had to get someone to go up and get it and show proof that he had a cdl then as he was leaving the impound lot they stopped him and wrote him up for not Phisical card. no triangels and no fire extungisher . i am tellen ya ya just can't win . Now what would maske me a good trailer toter would be like a 4900 I H now that should cover all the GCVW's along with vac hdy brakes. it has the rating and has the stoppen power . The head service manager for Dexter axels told me that the electric brake is NOT DESIGED TO STOP YOU IT IS JUST TO SLOW YOU DOWN and that the truck brakes are what is suppose to do the stoppen . well on my 88 ford on hot days over 80 degrees the brakes would fail after a long pull as the exhuast pipe on the let side would boil the brake fluid in the antiloc control valve and force it all back up into the master cylinder and when you would come down on the pedal it would go to the floor and the only way to get brakes back was to go back to the right rear wheel and bleed the brakes and you would not believe the air that would come out. then ya had brakes till you got here hot again and even with the big brakes on the trailer it would slow down but not realy stop ya. I even made up a heat sheild it helped but it still did it every once in a while so i never realy trusted them .
