I love the SCT 87 tune , switched over to the 91 tune about 10 days ago. I am only using the canned SCT tunes, but this tuner made the most difference of any tuner I've ever used. Extra power is fantastic, shifts better, and idles better. Increased my mileage about .5 mpg(getting 21.5 at 65 mph on the highway), but its really hard to keep my foot out of it. Loads of fun.

Sure wish I could get that kind of mileage. I am only seeing between 15.5 and 16.5 mpg.

I'm right there with you. I know my truck is brand new so I am not complaining a whole lot yet because I know the truck needs to break in. But I am only seeing 14.5-15.5 on a regular basis and that is in mostly 45-60mpg speed limits. The best I have ever seen was 19.2 and that was the day I purchased it. My truck only has 1600 miles on it so I will wait until after the first oil change and see if there is any difference before I got in to have it checked out.

Here's my rig, 2012 Platinum 4x4 with max tow package. So far only mods are plus size tires for towing and offroad. Soon to add Bilstein HD's in the rear.
