    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    @OVTune , any chance 2.0 will be done before the pre-order handhelds go out? Seems results are going well.
    Thanks :hattip:

    It doesn't check anything. Just any username/passwd should work

    I believe when i installed mine i just entered whatever. You aren't officially registering this version. So the info filled out doesn't matter.

    One more thing, just skip all of the warnings and continue with the process. It works. REALLY.

    I really want to do a tune on my truck but geez there’s so many different options now that I’m lost. Different versions, betas, octanes. :confused: How do I know which one I need? 2017 TRD OR 4x4 33” BFG’s, 3” lift, ARE camper shell, rock sliders, more armor to come.

    the most latest one. 2.0 87 but if youre able to get 93 octane then you go for the 2.0 93. Not difficult at all. If you are geared 4.88 then you get the 2.0 4.88. lol

    2.0 is all about smiles per mile. I did 150 yesterday. The truck drives great in D mode. 2.0 87 with 91 fuel, heavy 3.91 gears and 32. The truck shifts based on load and throttle pedal position. Every hill I climbed was easy. All the small rollers were downshifts to 5th and the large grades were 4th. The truck held the gear until reaching the top them upshifted as the grade flattened out.

    2.0=:):) I finally don’t regret buying this 3rd gen. :mudding:

    Anyone else notice that the torque converter locks in 2nd and 3rd gear now. Steady load above 2800 with gear lock engaged. :thumbsup:

    2.0 4.88 beta tune is legit for my 7k pound fully armored truck on 35's. Previously on 1.05, I've always drove in S mode but yesterday I put several hundred miles in and kept it in D the entire time. The truck drives effortlessly even on freeway inclines...never would I have said that before this version of the tune...

    I am wondering if the 4.88 tune would be better for me with 5.29s than the non specified gear. I am curious if it is so specific to 4.88 that the truck would get confused. I will probably give it a go tonight just to see. I have been out of town without my truck for a week so I have just been reading about all yall enjoying your tunes.

    Interesting you say that cause I wanted to try the non 4.88 2.0 tune to see if the shift points are longer. As others have mentioned, 3rd to 4th seems shorter than I'd like, but only cause I was paying attention. It still drives better than 1.05
