    Not yet. It's going to be a while before I get any info on that one.
    Truck ain't even out, so I don't even know for sure which engine will be in it.

    I do have a family and a full time nursing job, but I always have my phone. So I check my messages and this thread pretty regularly.

    We are moving this weekend into a new school district for my kids, so I will not be on TW that much for about 3-4 days starting friday.
    But I will check my PM's to make sure no one is waiting on me for something.

    @PapaRee, I've had my KDMax tune for a few weeks now and I still can't believe how all my problems are gone. This truck is finally fun to drive. Have you given any thought about a window decal. I'm not big on extra stickers, but I'd proudly display a KDMax decal on my back glass. Toyota should rename the ECT button in your honor...here is what I have in mind.

    Glad you are liking the tune!
    Chris @Phich and Dave @TWTaco made some decals.
    I have some in my computer bag to give out.
    Maybe reach out to them if you want one.

    My own take for what it’s worth. A window decal although nice might not be a good idea especially when going to the dealer for service . We want to be stealthy as possible .

    Honestly, KD is hot sex magic. I have bit my tongue for too long on just HOW good this tune is. I put a Magnuson supercharger on a few weeks ago and I miss Katie more than anything- $350 (depending on location) feels better than $7 grand plus. KDMax feels better than the damn supercharger (I'm not the only one that thinks this, look at my thread). How ridiculous is that? Kreg and Dave knocked it out of the park and I am going to go scream it from a mountain top. Hold my beer

    Yup KDM6, custom, SLT is it!! The only way I could see myself flashing another tune would be if Kreg built a new version of KDMax (that improved on the current version) on top of the 2.0 EROM ultimate and stated how it improved on my KDM6, custom tune. To be honest, the only new feature that I could see being useful in my case is the Tow mode/GL/Atkinson cycle delete. Might improve towing mileage?

    Personally I think KD is as good as it gets, and the reviews pretty much say that too...

    The fact it's currently outperforming a Magnuson SC IMO is telling enough. I paid over 7k for my truck to feel worse than KDMax. I only am ok with losing that money that quickly in the stock market. Everyone saw how well KD was doing and decided to try for themselves. Fact is there's nothing that will compare. M+W3.1 is the only other tune I would personally endorse and say that's nice. AJ is a great dude and like it or not a great tuner too. But KD has it down 100%. And Kreg and Dave are stand up guys, the customer service speaks for itself. For all I'm concerned these other "tunes" saw how good Katie looked and said "me too!". Including you Matt :crapstorm:
