Best Supplemental Braking System to Use for Flat-Towing Multiple Vehicles
Question:
Im wanting to flat tow a vehicle behind many different tow vehicles. Possibly a Chevy Spark or Nissan Versa, what would be the best brake controller for an application like that?

Expert Reply:
I have just what you need! For a correct braking system for flat-towing vehicles, you need a supplemental braking system instead of a brake controller. This is because brake controllers are not designed to work with flat-tow vehicles.
With that being said, the best supplemental braking system to use with multiple vehicles is the Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional # HM39524. With this system, you will be able to transfer it between vehicles for an easy installation.
It is important to note that you need more components to flat-tow your vehicles. If you need a complete setup for both, feel free to respond with the year/make/model of your vehicles and I will be happy to recommend a system for you.
