Question:
Is it possible a 2018 toyota tundra has no factory wiring plug end to hook up a trailer brake controller on a 4.6 liter with tow package.? Cant find one anywhere under the dash!!

According to Curt you can use the Adapter # C51455 on your 2018 Toyota Tundra for one of their brake controllers like the Spectrum # C51170 which uses a control knob and colors that resemble other knobs that are in modern vehicles.
When they installed a brake controller using this adapter on a Tundra they actually found the connector hidden behind the panel to the right of the ignition that has the traction control and tow haul buttons on it. I have attached a link to the instructions as well as pictures which show how to access the brake controller connector.
If you still have trouble finding it please let me know and I can help you troubleshoot further.
