Default Which programmer to buy?

Hello all, been thinking about buying a programmer for the truck. 06 F-150 5.4 4WD. There are several available from Edge, bullydog, SCT. I realize everyone has their own opinions but what is the best? How do I know which one to buy. I don't tow but a couple times a year I more less just want the power. I would also want the option to recalling ate the speedo if I get bigger tires someday

So why did you switch from Edge cts to SCT sf3?
Which is better in you opinion?
I just dont know that much about programmers, ive never used one but have heard lots of good things. My buddy has one on his Diesel and swears by it

I went with the sct because I wanted to get custom tunes and didn't want to wait months over at PHP. If you don't want custom tunes then id go with the edge for sure. If u do, but are willing to wait then stick with edge.

I had edge then went to sct then back to edge because the ddge has more options to tweak yourself than the sct does main thing i wanted was standard shift point adjustability that dct doesnt allow aswell as shift firmness adjustability thst unless your running custom tune sct doesnt allow you to change and its not a huge deal but the edge can probably program back and forth five times before the sct programs once haha but if your planning on in house dyno tuning someday sct is what you need
