Abstract: A vehicle system for a vehicle towing a trailer includes a trailer control module configured to control actuation of actuators of the trailer and a vehicle control module in communication with the trailer control module. The vehicle control module is configured to control actuation of actuators in the vehicle, determine an energy parameter associated with the vehicle when the trailer control module controls actuation of the actuators in the trailer based on an initial trailer condition, determine an actuation force when the trailer control module controls actuation of the actuators in the trailer based on the initial trailer condition, and generate a control signal for the trailer control module based on the actuation force to control actuation of the actuators of the trailer hitched to the vehicle. Other example vehicle systems and methods for vehicles towing trailers are also disclosed.
