Finally have a car that can tow my RV trailer... now I have another issue how can I tell if I have electric vs hydraulic braking system.
I took it to uhaul to get a hitch and they said I need to know what kind of braking system I have. I don't have owners manual. I took some photos of the interior tire and I don't see the blue wire that everyone keeps mentioning if it has electric braking system.

That is electric brakes. Notice the wires and lack of hydraulic brake lines (compare to your car for reference). Hydraulic brakes are generally on much larger trailers than the one you own.
