For your truck and your style of driving and how it's getting used, I think you'll be extremely happy with a standard street tune. The take off is far improved and I think personally for someone who accelerates from 0 to whatever a lot this would be a great tune.

Best mileage tune with sct
 
Thanks all. After much reading I believe I will get a street tune from Eric for regular driving, and use the 50 horse tune I have for towing. Gotta make this truck last as a work truck for another two years or so before I can get a 6.7 :-)

Tell Eric you want a street tune and his max towing tune. That tune is awesome.

I've got an E350 van. What was your mpg increase with "Eric's" tune? I'm hoping to increase my mpg. :jump:

E350, huh? That may turn out to be an apples and oranges case. If I am not mistaken, the vans don't have the intercooler. I don't know what this means for tune writers, but isn't that why the van is rated at 450lb/ft and the trucks are rated at 550lb/ft?
