I only use the truck to go to and from work and just looking for something with a little better fuel mileage? I know Cody said they can't guaranty better fuel mileage but I thought a few of you had done this and had some result that you don't mind sharing.
This is what I have pick out

Stock or Modified Stock Unless you don't want to take the chip out anytime you need to be stock, I would use this position for a tune. I never use my stock position.
40hp Heavy Tow
80hp Daily Driver
100hp Performance
Whisper Mode you know you could combine this with any tune? I combined it with my 40 tow tune. It idles low, but as soon as you push the gas, everything runs as usual.High Idle - 1,100rpm

Any input would be appreciate Thanks
Just a couple suggestions if you want 2 more slots for some more tunes. Its very little trouble removing the chip to make the stock. Just pull the key out of the ignition, then pull the chip out of the PCM. Make sure that you have cut out a hole big enough for this.

Also, pulling the chip in and out...the sharp solder joints on the chip have scratched my circuit traces a good bit (but still making connection). I put some liquid tape on these joints so they aren't sharp.
