I have the Roadmaster 9100 system like Steve and Suzy. It's quick to install and can easily be moved to another vehicle. I mounted its breakaway tank right on the actuator cylinder bracket. Thus when removed, only the air line and electrical line (actuates the breakaway system) remain. So I truly can move the complete system from vehicle to vehicle easily.
As far as the air line, it's kept up next to the tow bar, as I expect most are. It should have pretty good protection there. I have not tested it to see how the bus reacts after an air line separation. It would be an interesting test.
The 9100 is also proportional and functions well. There is a small hassle of the install and removal, but I like the vehicle interchange ability it has. Even if you don't frequently change toads, when you do you only need to buy the seat bracket for the new toad and install the air/electrical lines and go. With my typical luck, the SMI unit would somehow fail in the most extreme manner possible and leave me without brakes on the toad. I know it's not supposed to be able to do that, but there's a reason I don't gamble either! Lol.
