Tekonsha Voyager

My rig came with a Voyager already installed. I'm not familiar with this model. Are they any good? I don't tow a lot of weight but I do tow several different trailers fairly regular.
Thanks.

I've had one for like 12 years, just replaced it with a Activator III. The gain control was getting a bit notchy for my liking. Other then that no problems!

I've had two of them in different trucks and they both work fine. I tow about 10K, the prodigy is supposed to be the best but I'm happy with the Voyager.

If you didn't get a manual with it, try and obtain one. There are things you need to know regarding the operation that are best explained by the manual. They probably have them on their web site.

It is a good brake controller. I have used one for a lot of years and pulled grossing over 19,000 lbs. I just upgraded to a Prodigy and just did about 600 miles with it. I still need to fine tune it but before I do I found that I need to adjust the brakes on the 5er.

Do any of the trailers that you tow have electric/hydraulic brakes..if so you have more control with a P-3 I'm upgrading from my prodigy(which has served me well) to the P-3..
