DP tuner or VB?
I am in the process of moving, which entails towing a trailer from south Texas to Connecticut. The trailer will weigh about 5k. My question is should I get a VB from Brian's of DP tuner. I can only get one or the other right now. I currently have the tuner from Superchips, I do have gauges as well.

I'd get the VB first since you have the other stuff. 5k isn't a lot of weight for these trucks, but getting the VB now will make it much easier for you WHEN you get the DP. Definitely get the DP when you can -- I got the DP first, and now I'll have to send it back for a reflash when I get my tranny done.

i don't tow much but i went with the dp, the biggest thing i have towed is 1) 17 ft bay boat 3k and a 17 bass boat 1.5k but if you went with the dp you would be happy and never think twice about it. just my 2 ct
