brake controller

[shawnb]

Got a 2001 F250 power stroke. I need a brake controller and I am looking for suggestions. I pull a 24ft Pontoon boat or a 30ft 5th wheel camper. I know that it just should just plug in up under the dash. I have seen some adds here and there, but I have no idea what features I really need/want.

Clueless but still looking.

Keep reading. Here and in the archives. Three big names come up. Jordan, Prodigy, and Brakesmart. Each have thier good points, but each one has their drawbacks. I know which one I like, but it is up to you to do the research and figure out which one you like. You are the one that has to pull that trailer.

Brake Smart, Jordan, Prodigy. The brake smart is the one that gets my nod for ease of installation and best performance. The Jordan is a little harder to install and has been reported to work very well. I have owned two Prodigy an do not think they compare to the first two. I have the brake smart now and glad I sprung for the extra money for it.

Speaking of Brakesmart, does anyone know if they're shipping yet? I'm still waiting on a call from Steve. I haven't called in a couple of weeks.

If you want ease of installation, you cant go wrong with the Prodigy. It will be the easiest installation of the 3 listed, and will work fine for what you are going to do.
