    Been running Kruiser 4.0 for about a week now. It’s been running super good just like everyone else has stated. No issues at all. Only adjustment I made was toning the Tip-in down a bit for personal preference.

    If @Chadr7858 got raptor lights, they'd start calling them Tacoma lights. :cool:

    I updated a 2017’s ECU and OVTuned it and the Raptor lights stopped working. It’s like Tacoma’s know they don’t belong. True story*.




    *The Raptor lights did start working again, no clue how. Maybe they just had to reinfect the host?

    Got the Kruiser tune knocked out, enjoyed a fun drive home. Even without babying it at all, several school zones with stop and go traffic, I still managed 20.4mpg trip average over 52 miles... Even more important... It's FUN to drive.

    Thanks to @G8R_Taco for meeting up to get me squared away.

    Ended up going full tip in... He let me test drive it to decide which I preferred... Full tip was great.

    Another Kruiser 4.0 and @PapaRee praise.

    Had it on for 1.5 tanks. It feels like a new truck. Throttle is way more responsive/sensitive. I'm still getting used to slow speeds in parking lots, but I wouldn't change it at all.
    Highway driving is a dream. I have to constantly check my MPG because it keeps increasing my tank average and cruises SUPER nicely.

    I didn't really get any MPG improvement overall, but that's on me. It was way too fun not to punch it more. Still ended up with 15.0, with mostly local driving and uphill highway. I still have to hear this "woosh"...

    One thing I did notice, is that when it drops to 4th going uphill, it doesn't sound like the truck is going to explode anymore. Sounds like it's in 5th, until you check RPMs and realize it's a quiet 4th.

    Definitely worth the beer money!

    Been running 4.0 for a bit now. Only gripe I had was that “maybe” MPG went down slightly. Well I can now confidently say that when driving in 20-50 degree weather, I saw about 18 MPG (about 1 less than prior tune). On my way home for the last few days, it’s been 55-65 and I’m seeing 21-22 on basically a stock truck...awesome
