Well my opinion is: Surge Brakes are very common on rental trailers,some car and enclosed trailers,if you see a Motor Home and they are pulling a car with the drive wheels up on a tow dolly most likely the tow dolly ,if it has brakes at all,are surge brakes. Electric brakes on a tow dolly is a big maintenance problem.With surge brakes ,treat them just as your car.Keep in adjustment,keep the mechanism clean and fluid level kept ok and they work good I think,my tow dolly does any way.We went on a 1739 mile trip from Az. to Colorado in June and took the tow dolly with our "05 Impala on it and the surge brakes worked just as they should.More states are requiring brakes on tow dollys all the time so surge brakes are a no brainer I think. Probably others on here will disagree ,but who cares? My tow dolly is a Master Tow and it is 2 years old.
