A few questions- the tt dealer will be installing trailer brakes- any questions I should be asking them about this install?
In two weeks we pick it up and have our walk through- what type of questions should I be asking?
Thanks for any insight.

I had a brake controller installed by a dealer ONCE. He screwed it to the lower portion of my dash like he could care less where it went...looked like :E
On your 2014 Ram, it is plug and play. The wires are under the steering column, simply plug it in. My suggestion would be to install it yourself (save some money), or hang out in the garage with him to make sure he installs it where you want it.
My personal preference with the RAM, is for the intergrated brake control installed by a dealer. Expensive install (I think mine cost $400.00) compared to an after-market ($100.00-$150.00) but it works with your brakes. The harder you push...the stronger the signal sent to the trailer. The computer allows them to work as one. No delay, and no lag. It has it's own spot on the dash and it shows up on the HUD

I'm still trying to understand the weight guidelines. The dry weight of the tt is 6400 lbs and the towing capacity of the TV is 8300. What else should I be looking at?
