For me, when offroading and doing "stair steps" surge brakes work well....As I am trying to slowly ride the brakes down/over the steps the "trailer brakes" don't fight me as much as "electric brakes"...

I have used a TO-Extreme "High Country" with disc surge brakes with the solenoid valve, they worked great. Electric are not the best when you are trying to do "Stair Steeps" and ride the brakes down the "steeps"....Don't listen to the "WEB" if they hadn't used them, they shouldn't comment!

I am getting too old to sleep on the ground.

I have a daily driver with 212,000 miles (never had a head job or even gaskets) and my wife's is 167,000 (with heads done at 120,000). If you like it drive it...

Have one of each, "see thru" on Wife's and tan on mine. I like the "see thru" better, I can see what the water level is when "hot".
