Hows the integrated brake controller?

Anyone tow with the factory option brake controller yet?

If so, how is it? Compared to Brakesmart and/or Maxbrake?

That what I wanted to know also. If it dosen't operate the same as the two mentioned above I won't like it. Hard to go backwards.

I was told by one of the engineers at Body Builder Dodge Site that the bench mark for them was a Prodigy (model??) they had surpassed the Prodigy in every aspect I was told. I was also told the integrated controller was compatable with both electric and hydraulic braking systems. Unfortunately, I did not ask him how the unit was to operate and how it is incorporated into the workings of the vehicle or whether or not it was tied into the hydraulics or /braking system of the truck. (my initial call into Dodge Body Builder was for another specific question, the controller question came up from discussion). Sorry I am not an expert in this field and have very little working knowledge of these products.

Well, a Prodigy dosen't have squat on a Brakesmart or Maxbrake.
