honestly, their 91 perf returns the best mileage for me for DD. 91 is the highest casual pump gas you can get in vegas

I have a 2012 ECOBOOST with the bully dog. On the First Tune (the lowest power one) I got an increase of 1.5 mpg. 18.5mpg to 20 exactly. On trips - it is rediculous. I can get 25 if I drive 65 mpg. I had one trip where i averaged over 23. It was awesome. Stock tires 17" rims 4x4 though. The bully dog definitely helped me. Also the driving coach is super helpful too. Love the bully dog.

1.1.4.0 is out now, and you can also get the bully dog air intake. I think it may be time to get one since I have a lift and big tires. not sure what would benefit the most tires or 4.55 gears.

Default Special Functions issues

I hope someone can help. Every time and every time I try to change my idle RPM it says special functions not supported. Has anyone else ran into this issue? I don’t want to have to deal with bully bog since it takes hours lol. Thanks anyone who can help!

If their CS won't help you or is a PITA to deal with this should be a red flag.

Bully dog is garbage. Sell it and get a SCT tuner with custom tunes. MUCH better performance.
