I wrecked our escaPod

Ditto on what Furpod said. You should get the controller, if you ever get into an accident you would definitely face some serious civil liability and probably criminal charges.

I towed my rpod from dealer only. I didn't think about a brake controller. I'll get it asap. What do you guys recommend? Thanks

Thanks. Just checked the Hopkins controller. I like it. 

My son-in-law went with me today to bring our pod home to our daughter's house. We retrieved it from the tow yard today. It was later than we thought because I was waiting on UPS to deliver the cable wiring harness to connect the Hopkins controller. I removed the controller from the Escape and temporarily installed it in the Frontier so we could get to my daughter's house. I'll do a better job of mounting it when I have time, especially before we leave for the next leg of our trip.

We also did some temporary repairs. This involved screwing a piece of plywood over the Gorilla taped hole on the side and installing a replacement taillight. I'll get pictures tomorrow. I need to do more patching before we travel much more.

We did not have the time to set up the Equal-i-zer hitch. We had to tow without the bars in place which made the hitch like a plain ball with no weight distribution and no sway control. I will definitely be setting up the hitch tomorrow  because I did not feel comfortable towing without the sway control of the hitch. I limited the speed but still felt some swaying, even though I couldn't see it because it was dark. As far as it goes, the Frontier performed adequately going over the passes in western Wyoming and eastern Utah. It doesn't have quite the same performance of the Escape because it isn't turbocharged. However, it will be nice to only have to use regular gasoline instead of premium.

I need to replace two side-marker light covers that were lost in the accident. I should be able to get them (or replacement lights as a unit) from the Camping World or another RV dealer in the Salt Lake City area.

It was nice meeting Kokopod at the O'Reilley's Auto Parts store in Green River. We were finishing up the controller installation when Kokopod walked up.
