I am a huge fan of the OTT tune. I paid 700 dollars to a local so cal tunner (tk 421 tunning). Took about 30 minutes. The truck is about the same mpg wise. However, the truck has so much more power and responsiveness that it's hard to hyper mile it. I will say the bigger tires did way more too...

Carista let me play with all these a lot:
Basicly no reason to turn off ANC with a stock/jbl stereo, cabin gets sligly louder without it.
ENE is preference. loved it when I first got the truck, after driving it for almost a year now I went back and fourth over that time. I found the...
