Thanks for the quick reply. I have not spoken with anyone from PHP yet but does the 65 tow work for light towing also? Whats the difference btwn the 65 DD and 80DD?

The 65tow is for light towing I thought, and the difference between 65dd and 80dd is the hp. Maybe a little timing and shifting differences, but almost the same. I used the 120 tune on my truck I just recently sold, I got used to it and never wanted to use any other tune with it. I also seemed to get the best mileage with it.
My tune selection was:
stock
40 tow
65 tow
80 dd
120 hp(race? performance? not sure...)
no start.

I used the 40 tow to pull a 9k trailer, got decent mileage, decent meaning better than 10mpg's. I used the 65 to pull the trailer empty, the 80 was nice, but like I said, I really used the 120 the most.
I hope that helps your selection, oh and I had a MT so it didn't make much of a difference between tow and DD tunes, they were just hp levels. Good luck, oh and mine is for sale so I can save you some money. It is in the classifieds, make an offer. I am in Del Rio, Tx so shipping should be fairly cheap.

I really don't use my 65tow very often, I pull my gn horse trl in the 80dd & every thing stays good (EGT)

As far as the 65/80dd I doubt that a fella would notice any difference between the two, but then again I sure ain't no expert
