Best Supplemental Braking System for Flat Towing 2015 Ford F-150
Question:
I have all the flat towing items for my truck but I need a braking system. Mine was stolen. I want convenience as a priority.

Expert Reply:
The flat-towing supplemental braking system I most often recommend is the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR. This proportional braking device will slow your F-150 at the same rate that the RV slows down, meaning less of the tug-of-war feeling from the toad. It also offers the exceptional convenience of wireless installation and it is fully portable to make it easy to move between vehicles.
I have linked an installation video showing the Patriot in use in a Ford vehicle along with the written instructions.
