Replacement For Tekonsha Voyager Brake Controller In A 1998 Freightliner FL-60 Toter Truck

Question:
I have a 1998 Freightliner FL-60 Toter truck for towing my 42 toy hauler Triaxle toy hauler with. My present Tekonsa Voyager has crapped out. What brake controller would you recommend for this setup. Thanks!

Hi William!
Since Tekonsha has used the same plug for all their brake controllers since essentially the beginning of time (only a slight exaggeration), I would stick with their products. So with that said, we have a bunch of options for you.
We do have the Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 available and if you liked it, it would be a quick and easy install with no learning curve to get it set up since you have used one before. However, if you were wanting the best brake controller on the market, I recommend going with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional # 90195.
The P3 is easy to set up and use, exceptionally reliable, stores multiple trailer settings, has an easy to read LCD display, and works with electric or electric over hydraulic brakes. It is more expensive, but it's really quite awesome. In my opinion, it's the one to get.
What are you typically towing?
