09 ibc

The wife gave the OK on getting a PWC, yeah!! Not sure if I’m getting one or two. The question is should I spend the $$ and get an TBC installed on my 09 XLT 4X4, 5.4 w/ towing package? I don’t know much about towing and not sure if the TBC will even be worth it on just towing a couple of PWC. Thoughts?

TBC = Trailer Brake Controller. And no for PWCs you do not need one, and I doubt any trailer made to haul them would be built with brakes. That is unless it was meant for about 4 of them. Really don't need brakes until you get to about 3-4k, depending upon state.

Ah. Well, no PWC trailer will come with electric brakes, so there is no need for one. You can plug one up if you want... but it won't do anything.

what brand of pwc's are you looking at? and no you wont need a brake controller. those things wont weigh enough to require brakes.
