    I drive ‘21 Pro with 150-175 pounds in the bed and Eibach 1” rear blocks. Toyo AT3 265/75R16 SL. 4,000 miles at time of tune and I’ve got 290 mixed miles on the tune now.

    I felt it was worth the price within the first few minutes of my drive home. It should have taken 20 minutes, but that turned into an hour and half of driving around to experience the new manors of the truck, which I already loved, despite Paul informing me it would take a few hundred miles for it to settle in.

    It makes this thing shift like I want it to and that’s where the value is for me.

    My wife hasn’t driven the truck a single time (prefers her own to drive or to be passenger in others). During her first ride along, she commented about the exhaust no longer sounding shift happy.

    Miles to empty display has increased from ~310 to ~355 and climbing. MPG appears to be up 1-2 HWY and down 1-2 CTY. Maybe still learning, or maybe because I’m having more fun while driving. I hand calculate so I’ll get new data points as miles accumulate.

    Lastly, wife mode received my vote. I started with SLT and felt it was too “jerky” for MY driving habits and MY light weight setup. City MPG appears to be on the rise since activating wife mode and it’s clear it was the best choice for ME.

    @Foozer I don’t think you’d regret it. Hope my review is helpful

    I was bored today so decided to see the difference between ovtune and kdmax tune. I went with the regular lt tune. Initial impressions are the throttle response and shift points are a lot nicer then the ovtune. I can’t say there is a noticeable power difference, but it does feel smoother. I did notice an increase in my mpg, but i think it’s the way it drove fit my driving habit perfectly. Overall worth the experiment and will be keeping it.
