Bully Dog Tuner

I bought a bully dog tuner from an add on Craigslist. Installed it in my truck but it wont download the program. The error says that the original truck must be put back to stock before you can load the program on a new truck. I don't have access to the old truck. It was traded in and sold. Is there a way around this?

You could probably send it to the BullyDog to get them to unlock it from the previous truck. I'm sure there is a fee attached to that though.

Speaking as a former Triple Dog user be very careful of the higher HP settings. My tranny did not like how it shifted on street or the extreme setting. Street it wasn't as bad as the extreme, but I could tell the old girl didn't like it.
