    He claimed I've never driven a third gen. Which is wrong.

    30% throttle is 30% throttle. All this box does is change where in the pedal throw you hit it. Sure it "feels" quicker, but the proof is in the pudding which is why they flat out say it will not affect your 0-60 times.

    Why would the generation matter? This module does the same thing in all cars or trucks it's available for. It works exactly the same way

    Oh I don't give two shits about the debate going on in here and have no interest in the PC. I'm just trying to see if you're another person claiming something as fact with no actual experience with the product. Carry on.

    let's end this way of thinking: i am not using the Pedal Commander to change my engine. i am using it to change my throttle input.

    Nothing, not a peep from anyone from the company. I would have chalked it up to bad luck and moved on if they had bothered to acknowledge my emails with any sort of response. Now I am telling everyone about it. That chick karma, shes a b#€ch...

    Larry is no longer at the company, he was in direct sales. But you can contact Jax at jax@pedalcommander.com, I know Larry worked for her.

    I thought maybe they would be interested in possibly analyzing it and my old ecu to get some insight on how and why it happened for future reference or to better thier product. Apparently the toyota techs I've talked to are right about aftermarket companies only being concerned about getting your money. If it were me I certainly wouldn't want a customer of mine walking away with a bad taste in thier mouth. My point is word of mouth goes a long way in helping or hurting business and with social media being what it is they could have at least replied to someone who for the price of the product got left with a 2300 dollar bill. I should have just gone supercharger but hindsight is always 20/20

    the 2 week return policy should be a red flag right away, most reputable companys will offer 90 days. and you would have to think all the engineering and safety precautions that Toyota puts into developing a TPSM with government regulations etc. why someone would put this on thing on a $40,000 truck is beyond me, the trucks computer was not designed to handle the elevated voltage this thing sends out and walla fried computer and no Pedal commander around to pay for the damages it caused.
