Good thought. You'll need a good brake controller. I've found that the Tenkonsha P2 or P3 to be my favorites. I've used the P2 for years and like its control. There are both timed and progressive...

Welcome aboard! Nice floorplan, it's the one that replaced our model. And congrats on buying from a good dealer that takes care of issues. Not everyone can say that.
