    welcome, nice looking truck.

    if you have any power complaints then go check out the OV Tune thread for AT in this forum. the incoming release really wakes up the motor from a sleeping factory tune.

    Is this the thread you were talking about? I'm just starting to tackle the reading.....Can you give me the short answer to the HP, torque received from the tune?
    First page says 10-15 ft lbs of torque and 4-5 hp gains is this correct for 2018 models?

    What's with write the service dept. # down, and pic of service in back ground is bad luck? Have others had issues with 3rd gen 2018's?
    I have had several Toyota's and Lexus with no issues!

    New tune comes out this week, new timing new shift points, about 22 more hours measured at the wheels. 30lbs more torque available between 1500-2200 rpm. The ability to accelerate in 6th gear apparently. MPG gains. Look around post 520 or so, look for posts from ovtune, circa late last wednesday

    This is the one, start on page 525 for the latest
