That being said, I am still curious about a few things. I apologize if these issues have been addressed in this or other threads, but just had a few questions before making the purchase:

- Has anyone had any significant mechanical issues directly related to the LMS tune?
- Has anyone had any warranty work refused by Ford due to the LMS tune being installed?
- Is anyone extremely dissatisfied with LMS or their tunes (I'm not talking about not being able to replicate 1/4 mile times or trap speeds. My goal is to simply improve daily performance, throttle response, etc. I'm not concerned with absolute values of HP, torque or 1/4 mile times, and won't be going to the track...I also realize there are other tuners on the market, but have made the decision that if I do tune, it will be with LMS)

One final question - with all of the research and all of the money that Ford, Chevy and Dodge spend marketing "best in class" HP and torque numbers, why has Ford seemingly left so much on the table with this engine? If a simple tune can add so much to HP, torque and driveability, why aren't these engines configured differently? I realize they need to "appeal to the masses", but what truck buyer wouldn't want more HP and torque??

Appreciate any help and feedback, and apologize if this isn't the appropriate thread or format for these questions...

Thanks.

This is how ford should have released the Eco but since they didn't thankfully Livernois took car of us !!!!!!!!!! Only issues you'll see is "excessive rear tire wear", and your wife may yell " you're going to get a ticket" once in awhile!!!!!!!!!! Cant go wrong with Livernois !!!!!!!! I enquired about the 93 V10 tunes and had a response within a few hours, great customer service too !!!!!!!!!

I also pull a 7500 lbs camper and with the tow tune, the truck pulls like it's not even back there. I do have several other mods, but LMS is defiantly the way to go in my opinion. And the guys there have always been great to work with.

I know I'm not launching the truck the best I could with a 1.8 60ft time but The truck can only take so much power breaking in 4x4.

I really wish I could get even close to their tune times but just doesn't seem to be the cause. Am I driving my truck wrong or you you guys simply running a different tune because it is your shop truck because you don't care if it blows?
