Mind my asking what you paid for it???
I'm thinking about buying one for my F250, even though I don't need it at this exact moment.
I see on eBay you can get them for ~120 including the Ford quick connect harness.

i paid $124.95, and they shipped it fed ex 2nd day at no charge. that included the ford harness, which i couldn't use. whoever hooked up the cheasy peice of crap that was in my mule, did a splice job on the wiring, so i had to splice this one in. my controler also came with a harness for this purpose, the end pluged in to the prodigy, and the wires were long and heavy gauge, nice kit, no complaints here. i only wish the original owner of this truck had installed this controler, but at least i got to mount it in a better position than the old one. install time was 30 mins, and i took my time. let me know if you want a link to the site that i bought from...

the prodigy has you set up a "max power" setting, then, when you step on your brake pedal, it "senses" how hard you are braking and applies a percentage of that power to your trailer brakes. You can "boost" the setting so that the controler is more aggressive in applying power, and there are 3 progressively more aggresive "boost" settings. it is a great looking unit, and i hope it really does work as well as everyone here says...!
