I have a Tekonsha Prodigy in my F150 and it works fine. The '01 F150 was pre wired, I just got the proper pigtail and plugged it it. Took about 5 minutes to mount everything. When we got a new Suburban in '06, I specifically wanted the towing package - something I always get, and was assured by the dealer that the Prodigy would work. I got the proper pigtail for the Prodigy so I could swap it between vehicles. That's something I seldom do but wanted the capability. The pigtail would not plug into the slot under the dash. It was very close, but there was one extra little tab in the slot under the dash that prevented it from plugging in. After a lot of phone calls, found out that GM had changed things slightly and that the pigtails would not work on the new trucks. Further found out that the even if the pigtail would have plugged in, it wouldn't work because the wiring between the plug in and the rest of the system is not hooked up. All of the wiring was installed but purposely not hooked up due to "liability issues". Some of the wiring was laying under the carpeting, and the insulation had not been stripped off for installation. Dealer service department was completely unaware of this, I found out from internet searches and had to tell them, and they later confirmed that this was correct. The store where I got the supposedly correct pigtail was also unaware that the new GM's were different. Since I had specifically asked and had been assured that my brake controller would work with the new Suburban, the dealership ended up installing and hooking up everything for free. But it took several weeks to figure out what was going on. So don't assume that your truck is OK and the problem is with your controller.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
