    Not yet, unfortunately.

    We appreciate the kind words.

    While the tune is under development, updates are free. Our focus has been aimed towards finalizing the tune, so we haven't really discussed anything beyond that.

    We are currently designing a website where customers and tuners/flashers can register for email updates. So it will be much easier to receive notification on future releases once the website is up and running.

    A massive overhaul would most likely require some compensation, but if a user decided to go AGM at some point or something on the lines of that, that would be a free upgrade.

    I'm still on my first tank of gas since switching to Nexus +P. I've been running OVTune since 1.01 came out and have watched it progress to 2.0. Then tried DaCruiser, original Mooseditty (circa 2020?) and most variants of KDMax (5.0, 6.0 and Pro). This is by far the smoothest tune I've ran. The shifts are on point, throttle is predictable and power is there. All while running on regular gas.

    Thanks Mooseditty and team for putting out an awesome tune! Looking forward to seeing how this tune progresses forward as you continue to make improvements!

    So here we are again, discussing tunes.
    I've tried so many now. Tested tested tested.
    Some are really good, but they lack little things here and there.
    @Chadr7858 told me Moose put out a new tune.. and it was the tits. So, I figured, why not, I've worked with AJ before, he has put out good stuff.
    I reached out to him and he sent me the new Nexus (after I donated, I'm not freeloading unless it's from @Chadr7858)

    Here's my review. I 100% endorse this tune. I have noticed substantial gains, the truck drives as it should and has plenty of power. ECT is fun to drive on the dirt roads I have out here by my house.
    The shifting is great and the throttle is very responsive.
    Tune holds the gears as it should and I consider it to be a great success on the truck.
    The last tune I was on was another big name. It was good, definitely, but I was still averaging around 13-14 MPG. With the new tune, I am averaging 15+ with my heavy truck. I am very happy with this gain and the feeling of still having power. Especially with gas prices these days.

    All around good tune. AJ is easy to work with and will always take care of his customers. I appreciate that, support is key.
    Thanks for the hard work @Mooseditty17

    Also, note. If you look at the pictures you'll the miles increase. This is on my 3rd tank with Nexus. Solid numbers.

    Edit. Also note. I am on 35's with 5.29 gears. And those 18's are non highway MPG. I find with no matter what tune highway MPG usually stays 13.5-14.5

    We do not, and I'm not entirely sure of anyone in that area with vF...

    Still impressed.

    @Netaco4 is in theNE region and he is offering Nexus.

    We do not at this moment in time. But keep an eye out, or you have the option to purchase vF and you can get the tune for cheaper (plus updates would be easier to apply since you can get them directly from us and not have to meet with a tuner/flasher each time).

    I'm interested in the MT tune once available. I'm currently using the KDMAX premium tune.

    I think you need additional credits from VFtuner to be able to flash other vehicles

    My question (and apologies if this has been addressed already) is about cruise control. I'm on OVTune 2.0 for the last year or so (on 33s and 5.29s) and while the truck holds a gear well while climbing hills when I'm controlling the throttle, if I try the same roads/speeds with cruise control the trucks shifts wildly to compensate on the hills. If this tune (or any other tune) can reliably fix that issue you can go ahead and take my money.

    TLDR: anyone have reviews on how well this tune handles cruise control on hills @55mph+?

    I'm wondering the same exact thing. I've got the tune installed but haven't tried cruise control yet. I'll be going on a 1500 mile trip this week so I'll give cruise control a shot and will let you know how it does compared to the factory tune

    No offense intended to the OP, but when I look at power/torque graphs that start at ~3000 rpm I think to myself, “What does this tell me if I spend 99% of my time driving under 3000 rpm?”
