Question Superchips Microtuner

I posted in the explorer forum but was recommended to go here. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with the 1715 on an explorer 5.0 and if they are worth the bucks?

So you noticed a fairly decent improvement all in all?

Better than fair. Towing a 3000Lb boat the tranny kept downshifting when going up a slight incline, not any more. Great performance. The truck drives nice, seems to have lots of power over just stock. Passing on the highway is easier now. MPG is up 1.5-2.5, but having to buy premium is downside.

Worth every penny.
