Trailer Brake controller

[mmlawncare]

Well the brake controller on my personal truck finally bit the dust...just won't power up. Checked everything, it is just dead. I don't hardly use it unless one of the other trucks has a problem and the guys have to use my truck, but I do need to get a new one.

That said, does anyone have a personal favorite controller and why do you like it?

By the way, price is not really an option. Only the best goes on my truck.

I hear ya! Hey Chavez, do you use all the features on that thing?

Prodigy. All you need.

Can I get by with something simpler...probably.
Does it work awesome...YES.
As to all the features, I use it as a brake controller mostly. I will admit that I do look at the date a lot to make sure I know what day it is though.
It is nice because I don't have to adjust for each different trailer that I pull. Since it is my personal truck, it does not have a dedicated trailer that is behind it, but it does pull a trailer when needed. I just hook up and go. The controller knows just how much brake to apply for each trailer without me doing any adjustments. Also since it is in my normal driving truck, it looks cool.
