Reading on our lovely forum here, and the tuner that you plug in to stop the cylinder deactivation (but thats all it does) more have been saying about getting an actual tuner to do more for close the the same price, as the other item is $200.
I know nothing about tuners, but defintly am sick of the V4 to V8 crap, the shudder, the under powered, the time it takes to get out of it when needing all 8 cylinders. Ive seen the gas milage auto caculator actualy go down when in V4 mode becaues of the extra load, because it is in 6th gear
What are some good brands and models. I do want to get rid of the cylinder deactivation, but if it can do more, rather go that route.
Truck is used to haul a camper in the summer as well
I have been working around it using the manual shifter more in the city. Im cruising in the city at 50K and the tach is at 1000 rpm and in 6th gear. I want to save gas as much as the next guy, but thats ridiculous. Like driving a 5 speed standard 4 cylinder up hill in 5th gear, no power when u need it unless you just smash the gas pedal down
