I Have Tried Edge,bullydog And Banks And The 1705 Works The Best For Me. It Gets Great Fuel Millage And Plenty Of Power. People Talk Up The Edge And Bullydog All You Are Doing Is Paying For The Name. I Had The 1705 On All My Trucks Here At My Business And They Are Trouble Free. Plug Em In And Push What Power Setting You Want And Your Done It Saves Your Setting And Your On Your Way. Like The Old Saying Goes Keep It Simmple Stupid (kiss).
