tuner compatibility
I have not seen this quaestion asked so here goes.
Is there such a tuner that will work on ford all Superduty Diesels from 07-current?
I have an 07-6.0, an 08-6.4 and an 11-6.7 and would like one unit rather than 3...

Tuners tend to lock in the VIN code that you initially install the tuner in to. You can remove the tunes and go back to stock then move it to another truck, then do the same, but you've defeated the purpose of being able to use the same tuner for all three types of engines.
Unless there is a tuner company that will allow it, but it essentially comes down to buying three licenses and the codes to unlock the tuner for use on three different vehicles.
I'm sure Edge, SCT, Spartan, some of the other popualr companies are usable on all three vehicles, but probably not at the same time. They wouldn't be in business long because what would prevent a user from then taking it to his buddies truck and loading the tunes.
my 2 cents.

You can get an SCT device that CAN work on all 3, but it will not work on all three because it locks itself to 1 vehicles vin number. You can unlock it and use it on another vehicle, but you must return it to stock programming before you do

Thanks for the response guys I think I'll put that question to the suppliers and ask them if they can supply me with one unit and charge me for the codes and if it's simple enough to do do that for the vehicles
