Yeah my installer recommended setting it up that way. Very easy to see when it lights up on the coach dash.

Close up of the grill without base plate

Here is the car without base plate. Sorry for the bottom it is reflection, but rest is fairly clean. I used black touch up on the cut sides of the grill that were gray and white.

Would have to agree. Going from a Jeep Liberty these are a whole lot of fun to drive. Gas mileage is a bonus. [emoji3]

I’ll get the braking light on the motor home dash this weekend and post that also.

Didn’t post the stay and play location but if anyone wants I can pop the hood and get that too.

No problems here so far. Only a total of 334.3 miles to this point but some in the hills of southern Ohio, highway, etc. Doesn’t register miles so tracking for brake checks and tire rotation.

Tows like a dream so far and glad we chose this one for long term Toad.

Enjoy [emoji4]

Using a Patriot2.. over 10,000 miles on my 2013 Elantra. I have noted that the brakes are used much less on the toad. Set so only brakes when you do a signifigant brake application in RV. Which is perfect for me. I dont want the toad braking to the point of it trying to slow the rv.
