Let me see 5 answers to a question about stopping and 3 of them are driving HDTs ??? I think a 12,000lb front axle trumps a 7,000lb truck every time. I always check my trailer brakes as stated above and the trailer brakes, stopping the trailer and TRUCK/MOTORHOME, will usually (always) lock up the wheels on gravel or dirt if everything is right.. and I just go out and look at the skid marks to evaluate the stopping ability of the trailer brakes.. I disconnected the wire and tried it once without the trailer brakes and it felt pretty impressive. I am happy with our choices.
