he sounds like a great dad dustin!! drive easy like you were doing and you shouldn't have any problems. increase your stopping distances, reduce speed...all that stuff. not only may it save your lives and others, but it will save a pile of wear and tear on your truck!!

Driving nice and increasing stopping distances and stuff is all fine and dandy when pulling, but its still nice to have the trailer brakes hooked up. Being carefull is awesome, but just think of how many idiots are out there that arent carefull!

You should install one in your truck Dustin, they sure come in handy if a guy ever needs one. The one in my SD is kind of out of the way too, makes it nice cause its there, and not in the way.
