The seller that I purchased from does have them listed for the sale price of $449.10. I asked him if he could see it for a better price and told him I was in the Navy. He said he would give me a military discount, which is allowed by Edge.

I would probably be interested in one of these units if someone gives the review on mileage increases. Not for use as a sport truck mind you, but in everyday driving.

Someone on chevyavalanchefanclub.com said they saw 2-3 mpg increase.

I just installed mine yesterday. I have noticed (two days worth of driving) that the trucks instant MPG reading is about 2-3MPG higher on average than it was. Thas is with the 87 economy tune. There is a lot more power too.

sorry, but the wife's been driving her truck so I havent had a chance to play with it. However we're on the second tank on 93 and running on the highest performance setting. On the first tank fuel economy was poor but that might have been due to constant pedal to floor. The new found power is great. So far no running problems. Throttle response is great, and the topend power is wow......Merging into traffic is no longer a nightmare. My only complaint so far is the take-off performance, but this is the TMS of the truck.

At best on the economy tune our best MPG was 14.2. This is city mileage and driving like my moms mom.
Im driving this week so I'll get some 1/4 and 60's times to compare to the stock numbers.

I ran into an issue with mine. Edge is saying that it is gas related. When the truck is under heavy accelaration, I hear some pinging. This is on the 87 octane economy tune. I am going to run this tank down and put a different brand fuel in and see if it changes. If not, I will call Edge again.

i havent had any problems in any of the tunes so far. Toy is your truck stock?

I will say that the power is better, better as in throttle response but fuel economy in the highest setting sucks. 11.6-12.3 is what im getting on the avg DIC. Now i've been flooring the truck a lot more than ever before so I know this will kill the mileage and oneday i will drive it like the SUV it is and this should get things back up.

However before (stock mode)#1 setting at 60 with the cruise set the instant economy would be around 18-20 but mostly to the 18 side only getting over 20 every blue moon, and now (econo setting #2) it runs more in the 20-23mpg staying mostly at 20 and droppping to 18 every now and then.

Today we installed a Trueflow XDI intake and a magnaflow catback so we'll see how much more gas we can burn.......

Toy i noticed that you said on economy you got more power, but on the econo setting its designed more towards better fuel burning and transmission shifting. When we went to econo we didn't see any power increase. What number is displayed on the screen in the corner of the unit? I'm thinking you might be on 2 or 3 which needs a higher octane fuel and this might be why your getting the pinging.....
