Best 2005 GMC Sierra Brake Controller Options

Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at the best brake controllers available for the 2005 GMC Sierra 1500, 2500, and 3500. Now, we chose these brake controllers based on several different factors, mainly ease of use and the experience that we have with them here in the shop, and also what our customers say about them, which ones they like, which ones they have problems with.Here we have our Curt TriFlex. Here's the Tekonsha Prodigy P3; this is an extremely popular brake controller that we carry. The Redarc Tow-Pro Elite, and for kind of a curve ball we've got the prodigy RF. This is a radiofrequency model that actually mounts to your trailer. You just need to have a working 7-pole on your truck and then a working 12-volt outlet, and the handheld here acts just like your brake controller would.Now, all the brake controllers that we're going to look at today are proportional controllers. more
