    I'm assuming they are talking about locking in 2HI though.

    I do believe.

    Gimme full manual control for anything, IMHO. At least an override if I choose.

    I mean, you could short out some stuff and make it happen.

    BRB!

    No doubt. We had a true PoS Malibu. It's only redeeming quality was the spooled rear end. I once walked past a stuck AMC Eagle on an icy hill. That day pretty quashed my love for those other than the MT opton.

    That is just the tune files, and access to them.

    I have been following the OV tune process since the beginning. I have not purchased the tune yet but a have been watching and waiting for the best time to buy. I think since it was beta made me wait longer? I wanted to wait until it was a fully cooked product. Having the ability to go in and modify things on your own, sounds more enticing to me and may just push me to finally make that purchase.

    I am a little confused to the pricing and would like to know how much will it cost for new buyers? So Far I see.
    vF tuner $199
    Tacoma Tune pack $390
    Tactrix J2534 Cable?

    Does a single tune come with the vF tune software or can you purchase a single tune and not the pack?

    From what I understand, you will get sample tunes with the vF software that you can create your own tunes with. If you want 2.0 final or the other Tacoma tunes that OVtune has developed, you need to buy the pack.

    At the least, you will need vF tuner and a J2534 cable.

    You do not necessarily need a Tactrix, although I would also be weary of cheap Chinese products.

    So what I'm seeing is 760 total for a new customer.

    I have the same question as above, any way just to buy a single tune?

    Glad you remember I only wanted a single tune and not upgrades. This one I can customize myself too? If I could pay for a less for one single tune (2.0 87 superfob) and possibly pay less. This might just interest me. Care to chime your opinion?

    I was briefly following your guy's other thread, saw something specifically about 2019 ECUs being weird to tune, or at least I think it was the ECU for '19s that was the issue.

    The new tunes available will have these issues fixed?

    Brand new customer looking for a tune for my '19.

    Thanks
