If in fact this is true is there any reason on why? Do we have any other options that are similar to the Gryphon where one could get custom tunes?

Unfortunately, it IS true. The reason is because of all the problems that members have been having with the OBDII cables to this device. Simply stated, they are not manufactured properly and they are continually failing, rendering the programmer useless. PHP has no say in the source for these things, they come from Edge. So, unless Edge goes to a different supplier and can show that the cables are again reliable, PHP has decided to stop selling the programmers for those model years. PHP does NOT want to sell you "junk"!

PHP will, however continue to support any current owners of these programmers and will continue to work toward resolution of cable issues with those units.

And, all is not lost. PHP now sells the SCT X3 - a very respected programmer that can be programmed with custom tunes for 97-03 model year trucks.
