Re: [RC] trailer brakes - Sisu West Ranch

Truck manufacturers try  their best to get folk to purchase automatic transmissions, especially for pulling trailers.
 
The reason is that any idiot can stick his/her foot in it and pull a goose neck horse trailer with an automatic, but if you do not drive a manual properly, especially with a diesel, you will rip out the clutch and/or trannsmission in 5 K miles.  Typically, the idiot then wants the auto maker to fix, and also tells all of his/her friends at the local bar what bad trucks are made by the company.
