Hi and Thank you in advance,
Iwould like to know if there is anyone using the sterling all terrain and the even brake system and if it has worked well.
We have a 31 ft motorhome and will be towing a ford focus ses 5 speed.

I have a EvenBrake but use a Roadmaster Falcon II towbar. So far I've used the EvenBrake for over 6000 miles with no issues at all. It's very easy to set up and it provides very smooth braking. There have been a couple situations that would have had a very unhappy outcome if not for the supplemental braking.

We have the Sterling AT, and BrakeBuddy; tow a Saturn Ion with a Jayco Melbourne 29D. The Sterling AT worked great, was easy to hook and unhook--no problems. Same for the BrakeBuddy. Just finished a 3400 mile trip through some pretty mountainous country and BrakeBuddy only engergized 3 or 4 times. BTW, averaged 9.7 MPG for entire trip, towing the Saturn. Best mileage was at 60-65 MPG as opposed to 55-60 MPG...go figure.
