    I believe the KDMax redlines are equal to the OV2.0 at ~7200 rpm. Shift point for each gear depends on speed, load, throttle position, etc... @PapaRee can answer those details.

    2019 (Auto) should be on 04b33 if it is up to date.
    04b33 is supported by vftuner.

    2019 (Manual) should be on 04b42 if it is up to date.
    04b42 is not supported by vftuner.
    But I do have a 04b42 KDMax tune available.

    Just drove the truck a block away to get some Pho. That pedal is hot! hot! hot! But it is still easy to drive when you're a fatty. Need some highway time to really get into the meats. But so far, its dope. I could probably live with the LT just fine, but its also nice to just lightly touch the pedal and it goes. Not lurching or hanging for me. Granted I literally have driven it 1 mile so far :rofl:

    WifeTip

    For anyone who has a truck that is still super punchy off the line with the SLT tune, the WifeTip tune seems to resolve this. Vic just left and after a quick drive I feel like this will be the final tune. It puts some of the squish back into the pedal from a dead start while it still feels good through the mid-gears. Also turning off ECT puts a bit of punch back into it from a start.

    I'll get some highway miles in this weekend but I expect it'll be just as smooth in the gears as it was with SLT. None of that was supposed to change.

    Thanks again @PapaRee and @HCFR TACO22. The support from these guys has been amazing.

    Heavy Foot Tip? (HFT tune)
    My Teenagers ain't driving it the other way Tip?
    Sweet & Sour Tip (SST tune)?

    I'm sure we can get creative with this. But secretly we'll all continue to call it the Wife Tip :D

    What I admire most about PaPARee and his KMAX tunes (in addt'n to his OUTSTANDING customer service) is his ability to design a tune to fit just about anyone's needs. Cheeese Kudos from WI to ya brother....Keep up the good work my friend!

    Any idea what the difference between SLT and Wifetip is? Was it as simple as softening the first 15% of pedal travel in lower gears even more?

    I just had the wife tip done this morning in Tampa by Vic. First i would like to say Vic is an awesome guy and very easy to communicate with. He let me try 3 different tunes until I found what I was after. Before the tune I was like many others and about ready to dump the truck. The constant gear hunting and unresponsive pedal feel was horrible, it made it a chore to drive .This tune changed everything and I can even use cruise control without the constant shifting, it's so smooth sometimes I don't even feel it shift. Thank you papaRee and HCFR for making my Tacoma a pleasure to drive !! If your in Tampa or surrounding areas give Vic a call, money well spent. The difference as far as I can tell between wife tip and slt is just an easier to control throttle. No more jerky off the line starts. Everything else seems the same. Haven't been on the highway yet but if it's the same as slt I'm very happy
