[A/S] Brake Controllers



Hi everyone!

Well, I just made a deal to buy a '66 Overlander, and I'll be 
picking it up hopefully next week! It's about an 8 hour drive, and 
since I haven't yet purchased a tow vehicle I'm going to rent a new 
Chevy 2500 pick-up to tow it home with (you can get them from Budget 
with tow packages already installed, including the plug in for the 
brake controller).

I have a question about brake controllers. I would be intereseted in 
list members recommendations. It has to be something that I can 
install easily in the rental truck, and later use on whatever I buy 
myself for a tow vehicle. 

I was looking at the prodigy controller. Any thoughts on that one? 
It looks pretty good. Anybody know what they cost? How hard are they 
to hook up? Anybody got a newer Chev 2500. I believe the brake 
controller plugs right in somewhere?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks
