simply NOT true. Although there are small trailers with emergency only
tethered electric brakes, any reasonably large trailer like a two axle U-Haul
car hauler will have fully proportional electric brakes. These brakes do
need the proper wiring and brake control in your car. New F-150s with trailer
towing packages come standard with the electric brake controller built
in. Aftermarket ones are readily available. <BR><BR>The link
Adriel posted was a somewhat Rube Goldberg mechanical version for flat towing
a vehicle, but it might work.<BR><BR>I would be hesitant to flat tow a 2000 lb
Type 3 through the mountains with an older 3500-4000 lb car without some
trailer braking.</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

trailer for your tow car. :O They're very fussy about what pulls their
stuff. BTDT while trying to rent a tow dolly once. They wouldn't do it, as they
felt the tow vehicle wasn't heavy enough or powerful enough to pull it with the
car that needed pulling. This can be a problem IF you're stuck in the middle of
no-where USA. Just something to keep in mind.</FONT></DIV>

that you really need to think ahead when using one, as they (tow
dollies) don't normally come with brakes.</DIV>
