which trailer brake controller do you have?

I need to replace my current trailer brake controller and was just wondering what controllers everybody out there is using, any particular models to avoid.
I pull quite a bit and plan to get a really good one that will last me.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Alot of folks run the Tekonsha Prodigy controller, I've never had one of these, but I have run the Voyager, which is a very simple controller, has a manual control which I like, and takes only about 30 seconds to adjust to what ever trailer you hook up.
I understand that the prodigy automaticly adjusts, but don't know that for sure.

I have always preferred the Voyager II. Simple adjustment, multiple axles. I have been using them for over 15 years and I have not had a problem. The one in my '99 F-350 is the first one that I bought In '91 or '92 and it works like a charm.
