Question:

I have a 2005 Dodge Ram 3500. I currently pull a bumper pull camper. We MIGHT upgrade someday to a larger bumper pull or possibly even a 5th wheel. What is the “BEST” brake controller you sell? Currently my trailer has 2 axles but we MIGHT have up to 3 someday. I have a 7 way plug factory on my truck. I do want a proportional controller I believe.

Expert Reply:

First off, the proportional brake controllers are definitely recommended for a situation like this. They provide better response so they are safer, and also have less wear and tear on your trailer's brakes since they apply braking pressure equal to your vehicle's braking. For your 2005 Ram 3500, I recommend the Curt TriFlex # C24VV with adapter # C51332. Curt is a very trustworthy and reliable brand, and this controller is one of the most reliable controllers on the market. It is good for up to 4 braking axles, so you won't have to worry when upgrading your trailer.
