Thanks for the excellent description of the workings of a jake brake. Your explanation certainly tells the workings of the brake. I have been up and down some pretty steep inclines and declines and I approach them pretty conservatively as I have been scared in the past. If you drive defensively, I am of the opinion, if you need a jake brake to slow a camper, your camper is too big, your tow vehicle is too light or your just driving too fast. Oh,, and by the way Bob, good choice in tow vehicle.
