    Thinking about installing an OTT Tune, but Mild setting sounds about like the benefits of ECT. Should I just install an always on ECT harness and save some $$$ and have no warranty cancellation worries?

    I'm thinking of having the tune too. You can have a higher setting than mild. I hear that it won't cancel your warranty. Dealership can't find out because it adjusts the shifting points of the trans. Looking for others to comment

    I also am thinking about the tune. I am just wondering about reliability of the truck long term. I wonder how many of the problems people post on here are because they have a tune.
