Finally Got It.

I finally decided to get the PPE and I have purchased the Hot version. My question is what setting will yield the best millage? Thanks.

In theory the higher setting you run the better mileage because it make the truck go down the road easier. But of course thats if you can keep your foot off the skinny pedal.

Ya, I bought it from a friend that traded his truck in for a new body. He said if I ran two or three would be the best for millage and like you said if I can leave my foot out of it it would get better in four or five. Thanks

I am runnin mine on level 4 right now, and seeing about 3mpg difference in mpg's. However, be careful because the level 4 tune is a little more than the allison can handle, or at least in my case.
