Question:
I have a 2023 Ford Maverick Hybrid with an OEM 4-pin trailer plug. Id like to upgrade this setup. In the end, I would like a 7-pin trailer connector that will charge the onboard trailer battery as I drive. Additionally, Id like to have a non-wifi/non-bluetooth brake controller. And, if etrailer carries electric trailer brakes, Id like a recommendation for trailer brakes that work with the aforementioned brake controller. The trailer is a 2008 Silver Shadow travel trailer weighing 1050#, Thanks!

The easiest solution would be to start with the 7-way kit part # TK95VR which gives you a fully functional 7-way ready for a brake controller install for your 2023 Ford Maverick Then for a brake controller the P2 part # 90885 would plug right into the brake controller install port this comes with.
We do carry parts to add brakes to your trailer but I would need more info to determine what you'd need like the axle capacity and the wheel bolt pattern. I attached a help article that will walk you through the entire process of adding brakes to your trailer as well.
