when you plow

Do you have tunes? if so what tune do you run when your plowing? Does anyone make a specific tune just for plowing?

When I got my tunes Eric told me to run my tow tune while plowing and I want to make sure thats legit before I go plowing for the winter season. Im looking forward ot hearing everyones feedback.

Thanks,

Rob

Tow tune is the workhorse tune.

is it necessary to be in tow tune when just driving with the plow on the truck or should I only be in the tow tune when actually plowing?

A tow tune would be a factory headbolt safe tune. You can drive it anytime for anything

cool, thanks for the heads up. I guess I will just run the tow tune whenever the plow is on the truck.

I appreciate the help.
