No, but you might get a good brake buddy for that kind of money! Marvh

Hi Marvh,
I went on Adventure RV net.com, and beat Camping World by about $300.00. Wouldn't hurt to shop around. Hope this helps take the sting out of it!

You may want to check Craig's list in your area. They usually sell used for around $300-$400. Currently in my area, you can get a top of the line Blue-Ox aluminum tow bar and a Brake Buddy for $750, or offer.

I have the older non-proportional Buddy Brake. Works fine for me. Driving slow the way I do, it seldom initiates, but it is nice to know it's there.

You might consider "Ready Brake". It's an alternative that many people are very happy with.
