    We have been running and monitoring it for about a month. 4wd, towing, city, highway, Cruise Control, etc...
    It is smooth and strong!
    The Manual Transmission tune is better too. We have it on test trucks too. So, Manual guys have an upgrade too.

    In addition, whatever remnants of what some call a "jerky" throttle, is even further smoothed out, virtually eliminated.

    XT extra torque help on the highway? As far as helping to keep from dropping to 4th?

    Yes! It did improve this. The shifting (downshifting an upshifting) uses multiple variables to decide when to shift. This increase in torque keeps the truck in 5th for more hills than before. NOT every hill, but more hills. It is improved.

    Power and Torque across the entire rpm range! That is outstanding! As someone who tows now I need to go upgrade again. Do all of the tuners have access to the new XT file now?

    Yes all authorized KDMAX tuners have the new Pro-XT files.

    No. I would not.
    I would only reset if you are having problems. It takes too long to recover MPG's and the truck runs weird for about 500 miles.

    I hope I never have to reset again. It was not fun.

    A little MPG test on the Pro+XT today.
    My truck:
    295/70/17
    4.88 gears
    400/450lbs-ish heavier than stock
    C1389D90-7C5E-4FCE-B832-9C6012C1660B.jpg

    Same route followed, mostly highway, light to medium traffic, minor slowdowns. Highway speeds 65-78, mostly near 70-72.
    10mph headwind on the first pic, then it became a tailwind on the way back.
    No drafting, no deception, just an honest drive, driving like a normal person.

    How much are you all charging for the updates? Does each tuner set their own prices?
