Chip/tuner question

Okay new here and I browsed around a bit, but I got a question.

I currently own a 4x f250 v10 and a 2wd excursion with a 5.4. Yes we have a junk commuter car we both drive to work .

Anyway I wanted to buy a system for the excursion as it sees the most around town and family trip driving with the kids 10-15 miles daily. I was thinking it would be cool to have the option to use it in the truck as well. It seems from the threads I have read most people are in the PHP camp and thumper is in the VMP camp.

Which of these would be best for me, or is there a better option?
Does anyone know what a 2wd excursion with a 5.4 gets for MPG?

Mikey

I'll run it past Bill as soon as he's awake (he's going on SIX whole hours of sleep -- WOO HOO! -- ); I think we can help you with both vehicles.

I always recommend SCT's products. If you get rid of your vehicle, you'll be able to order new tunes and as long as the new vehicle has a ODBII port you'll be able to have a "new" programmer for your new vehicle. Why not just give Justin a call? I can promise you that you won't be disappointed.

JeremyGSU always poked fun at me about my recommending VMP Tuning. Jeremy was local to VMP but decided to go with Troyer ... Guess what happened? Jeremy ended up switching to VMP and now he LOVES his tunes and recommends them just as much as me.

There are several products that we can offer for your F-250 and a couple of choices for the Excursion. Give us a call if you'd like to discuss it. 678-963-9913.

Don't kid yourself, Thumper... Everybody pokes fun at you about recommending Justin. But that's only because we love you so much!

But seriously, Justin is a good guy and certainly offers good service and products and is quite knowledgeable.

Take care.

I thought we were poking fun at him for personally delivering a pair of his panties to Jeremy.

No he doesn't like people with bad memories, he says he doesn't trust them.
