M&G Engineering (towed braking). What a great experience!

[trailerbal]

After researching towed braking systems on this forum and others, we decided to take our coach (2021 Verona VRB) and our truck (2021 F150) to M&G Engineering in Athens, Texas. While there, we met Leon Meadows, the original creator of the technology. At 98 years young, Leon is clear minded, very welcoming, and still drives himself to the shop every day. This really enhanced our whole experience.

When making the initial appointment, we spoke to Monty, Co founder and main installer. Monty offered a 50 amp site on the side of the building to enhance our stay during the install. Since we live two hour's away, we drove down the afternoon before. After setting up next to the shop, we ordered take out from a great seafood place (Athens Boat House), then settled in for the night.

The next morning, Monty welcomed us into the shop at 8:00 AM. The set up on the truck took about three hours. The set up on the coach took another 30 minutes. Once complete, Monty assisted in hooking up the coach and providing a brief demo of how the system works. The system performed flawlessly on our return trip.

We would highly recommend M&G Engineering to anyone in need of a great towed braking system, as well as a great experience. We love made in America. All parts are machined on site. This is American entrepreneurship at its best. Contact info below:

We also watched a utube channel that gave a great review of M&G prior to making our final decision. See below:

There are many that know a lot more about these systems than we do. We simply hope our experience is helpful to others who may be on the fence about what system to consider.
Thanks,

I'll ditto the M&G system. I've installed theirs twice in Jeeps and I really like the simplicity of the setup. One it's installed there's just an airline and break away switch to hook and that's.

I've been using their brake system for close to 20 years now on 5 different vehicles. I've talked to Monty several times over the years to help me with instillation problems and or questions. Good company for sure.

We had a similar experience 3 years ago. Great people who designed and sell a great system. In my book it is the best.

We've had our M&G system for 7 years. It has been transferred from one Jeep to the next and still works great. Love the simplicity and ease of connection.

Another big fan of the M&G. Love that there is nothing in the cab and nothing attached to the brake pedal arm.

It has now been nearly two years and 19,000 miles since M&G Engineering installed our towed braking system. Just wanted to give this quick update on our experience. We can highly recommend M&G Engineering for anyone needing a similar application. I find in talking with many different RVers that M&G is not familiar to many. It is much simpler, less expensive, and more proven than many systems out there. Obviously, that is my opinion, so others will need to do their own research.

Ditto…
Monty is also very helpful with DIY installations, which went without any hiccups btw. Clear, concise installation instructions were provided, all written in plain English.
Just a great, 100% reliable, fully proportional system backed by incredible support, a “trade in” program if you change vehicles and Made in USA. Going on two years with our M&G system, no issues at all. One side benefit, I pull the breakaway pin if parking the Jeep in any questionable areas short term. No way it’s going anywhere.

Anyone looking for a superb toad braking system should really consider these guys.

It's always great to know there are still service providers in America who do one thing, do it really well and aren't in it to hustle unsuspecting and naive consumers.I live in the DFW metro and here 9 in 10 auto repair facillties, plumbers, electricians, A/C service, etc. are licensed hustlers. If you happen on a good one, you're lucky.

I've used the M&G Engineering system since 1999 installing it of 5 different toads. I just send in the old one + what ever the current exchange rate is and they send me a new one!
