Expert Reply:
The big advantage to pulling a fuse on a vehicle that gets flat towed compared to disconnecting a battery is that you don't lose any electrical presets like the radio. Also if you use a supplemental braking system like the # BLU37TR that draws power from a 12 volt outlet in the vehicle the outlet will still be active.
To make pulling the fuse easier we have the Fusemaster Bypass kit part # RM76511 which allows you to kill the circuit by flipping a switch instead.
