i have the prodigy brake controller and i agree it is the best. however the brakes are not. Zardoz, you are right about shifting down when going downhills and i ALWAYS used to do it because it does save the brakes BUT........brakes are relatively cheap especially when it comes to replacing a tranny. as i said i always used to downshift untill a realized that i could replace the brakes 10 or more times for less than the cost of a new tranny so form then on i have never downshifted unless totally necessary to prevent an accident. so on that note i dont downshift my truck but i do have my brake controller set very aggresively but still the rotors warp. nissan designed a great truck and if it wasnt so superior in all other areas the brakes probably wouldnt be that obvious but when everything else is way above par it makes the slightly under par brakes look horible.
