Hi, We are from Western Washington, We Ordered a new Bearcat 21 RBS which should be in around Dec time frame. We can't wait to get out and get camping this spring. I have found this site to be very helpful/informative. We'll be towing with a 2015 Tundra and am looking at a Blue Ox sway pro WDH. Happy Camping  8-)

Welcome from another Bearcat owner! I don't know much about that WD hitch, we just went with a fairly inexpensive one that the dealer installed, and it seems to be fine for the job.

If the dealer wants to sell you a brake controller, make sure it's a good one. Ours is pure crap, not proportional, just works like an on-off switch. I'll be replacing it with a Tekonsha Prodigy P3 before our next trip.

Hey Bill We use a P2 controller, not sure if it's proportional I'll have to check. Thanks for turning me on to this forum. Russ

Russ, P2 is proportional, and works great. We had one in our old F150 that we used to tow a Jeep with, and it worked great. You should be fine with that.
