I recommend using the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195, because it's going to provide you with an easy to read LCD screen and provides you with reliable proportional braking for your trailer. The Prodigy P3 automatically levels when mounted within a 360-degree vertical range, so it can be installed just about anywhere on the dash of your 2016 Toyota Tundra and it has 5 storable settings in case you tow multiple trailers. This is one of our most popular and well reviewed trailer brake controllers and it's really easy to use.

To ease installation of the controller you can use the # 3031-P harness to give you a plug and play installation on your 2016 Tundra. I've linked a review and installation video of this controller for you to check out, as well.
