Hi,
I'm new here and have a question that's probably been asked 1000 times, but here goes: I have an '03, only mod. is a cold air kit. I travel 60K a year selling cranes, and pull a 4000# trailer pretty regularly. Which tuner should I look at, if any? I want more power when the trailer is back there, but need longevity and fuel mileage as I make my living with the truck.

I'm real familiar with making HP the old fashioned way (bore, stroke and pump) as my brother and nephew have built and pull several pro-stock tractors, but I'm sorta lost on the programmer. Thanks!

Welcome to the board...... With a search of the site you will find you have more reading than you will believe.....

I think you will find that the Edge products are well spoken of here.... others speak highly of TTS and even Quad.....

I've driven with the Edge for over a year now with only a few minor issues that Edge handled extremely well.....

Welcome!
The Edge Juice -w- Attidute display & interface is an excellent choice.
With the pyro sensor you have 5 settings:
Tow on #2 - I notice lots of extra power, and 2-3 MPG lower fuel mileage than when its not installed... when towing my travel trailer at least. Less difference with a ligher load.
I drive with it on #4 (unloaded). The truck is very drivable in traffic, it lets me take advantage of gaps in traffic that I wouldn't consider without the extra power. I notice no change in unloaded fuel mileage from when it is not installed (16-20 MPG depending on driving conditions).

The Attitude display & interface is great. You can change the program level very quickly and on the fly, plus it provides lots of info.
