Looking at LiveWire from 5Star

Seems better than the X3 do people go with the X3 just to save some $$$ or is it not available for the 2000 Excursion???

Can anyone give me the pros of this product from fist hand experience?

I too am looking to get a Livewire for my '05 V-10, saving my pennies.
What I really need is some feedback from users to help convince my Bride that it is a sound investment.

If you need our backing then your already doomed. You could always try the old. "a bride isn't always a sound investment but we still make em". Gotta try everything at least once so we can say for sure if it was sound.

I found the tranny has better shift points, more power to get up and go, plus some milage added into the mix. Plus, plus and bonus.

I went with the x3, cuz I truly didn't see me using the features of the livewire. Plus I had recently bought the AE scanner that had all those features of the livewire. Either way you should be happy with the end result.
