I've been doing research and have determined that I'm going to buy a chip and 2 or 3 tunes from DP. The tunes being $50 each, I need to figure out which tune to pic for the best economy. I've seen several threads that recommend the 80hp economy tune, but I haven't seen anything about the 60hp economy tune. I'm planning on having 3 tunes; stock, tow, performance, and economy with economy being the most important to me. I would appreciate any info from those of you who have tried these tunes.

I have an '02, F-25,0 Super Cab, 4x4, stock.

 

welcome to FTE.
i have 60 tow, 80 econo, and 140 race in my chip. 99.9% of the time i am in 80 econo, and get best performance, power, and mileage in 80 econo. .

 

Welcome to FTE.

Do you have the supporting mods done? Exhaust, gauges, and intake? I wouldn't run my DP without these supporting mods.

What kind of weight are you towing? Don't expect much of a gain in MPG with any tuner you get. If you get the F6, you can try the tunes before you buy.

 

I get the best fuel economy in 60e rather then 80e, plus the pedal isn't so touchy in 60e.

 

I'll be getting the gauges as well. I have a 18ft boat that I'll be towing. As for the mpg, I've seen several forum posts where people boast of getting mpg increases due to a tuner being installed. Is this inaccurate?

 

I run a Livewire with Innovative tunes, not much better with the MPG. However it's no worse than stock and man what difference. Rob, awesome avatar. Nice...........
