Question

Ford Factory Installed Trailer Brake Controller?

I searched this forum and couldn't find anything. Did the 2008 F-150 have an optional trailer brake controller? All the recent F150s seem to have that as an option.

If there wasn't one, I'll probably go with a Tekonsha P3, but I thought I'd look for an official Ford one before that.

Factory ITBCs weren’t a thing until the 12G trucks rolled on in.
