    I've been toying with the idea of upgrading the profile on my work truck's PCM, but the $$$ for a truck that isn't mine kinda sucks, especially since they retire them at 100k, and I'm at 71k adding 2500 miles per month. It won't be long before I may be driving one of the F150's that have been sitting around the lot at work. I had tried to use a friends Hypertech when I found out you are limited to one vehicle at a time.

    I tuned mine with the Hypertech tuner. I am very pleased with it.

    The Jet programmer they sent me apparently was an older version and needed an update. Jet wanted me to send it back to them and they would send me a new one. I said no thanks and am returning it to JCWhitney for a refund. Hypertech is looking better and better.

    I've had a Hypertech, Superchips Flashpaq, and now, a custom tune from Wait4Me loaded on a SCT Handheld unit.

    After a custom tune, you'll never go with an off-the-shelf tuner again.

    I've got the Hypertech Hyperpac touch screen programmer. I love it other than the fact that they do not have all the features functional as of right now. I have to take it to Hypertech and get them to individually program mine as I have the 8.1L and they dont have many of those from what they told me.
