Hey Dave welcome to FTE. A little more detail would be great. What are you looking to accomplish here? You staying stock or you deleting?

well not really sure I want Reliability but I also want a little more power right now it is completely stock the previous owner took really good care of it but it does have 200k + miles on it so that being said am I going to cause more issue with it if I tune and delete with that many mile or would it be a smart to delete before I have failure

Okay so how are you going to use the truck? Sometimes tow a camper? daily driver? Pull a load daily? How do you plan on driving the new truck?

And pics or it didn't happen.
