Edge evolution, Edge Juice... suggestions

I have a 07 classic 3500 using to tow a race trailer with, don't really want the programs so much as just a monitoring system for the engine and tranny. Is the Evolution an okay product for this?

Where's the best price on these? Only place I looked has them for $430 with free shipping.

Is there a better unit out there with comparible features you guys recommend? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the feedback, if I leave the program stock and just use it for monitoring temps etc, will it affect the performance of the truck?

Have zero experience using these so I didn't know if just plugging it in will cause interference with the stock processor.

Called the Edge Technical support, they told me if I was just monitoring to buy an MSD Dash Hawk. $300 and just does the monitoring I wanted. I'll have it in a couple days to see how it does.

Gotta love it when technical support actually gives you information that saves you money and they aren't just trying to upsell you.

no mods

I run an 05 2500 hd(see my avatar pic) I do NOT use any mods and I haul heavy equipment on a daily basis. My tranny NEVER overheats and I routinely drive mountain passes pulling 10-14,000 lbs.
