what really sucks is that the price goes way up for the '08 and '09 for a tune. I suspect i will prob end up going with the option of buying a pre tuned ECM/TCM and keeping my originals just in case i end up needing to revert to stock for some unforseen reason. Either way...it will be nice to fully unleash what the TB can do.

I'm keeping my original and ordering a tuned one
 
Why do you want to keep your original? You are far cheaper to tune the original and keep the loaner.

Keep in mind you will need to do a security relearn and also need a CASE relearn.

It is more expensive to buy a tuned PCM, but on the other hand you will have roughly zero down time waiting for the tune, it gives you a spare PCM, and if you get rid of the TB you can install the stock PCM and sell the tuned one.

I had my PCM tuned during a week of vacation. Without vacation time, I would have had to buy a tuned PCM as well.

Going that route to keep a spare :yes:

I'll never get rid of the TB, plan on being a TB guy for life :thumbsup: maybe a TBSS owner in the future if my current TB doesn't last.

If I had the money, I would definitely have a TBSS. Wife is next in line for a new vehicle and she has expensive taste. She wants a 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. Lifted with big wheels and tires. Has to be white, auto tranny, with a soft ajd hard top. No compromise.

Last I checked they do not have the loner program for '08-09. Just the dashhawk and core.

Pretty much listed all the reasons I want to go this route....though my situation does allow me to consider sending in my originals...

Hmmmmm...thinking about jumping on some 5630 switchbacks.. $23.. Hmmmm decisions.
Do it, I don't really like mine anymore only because they look way too yellow-ish depending on what angle you look at them, really looks awkward when you compare it to my grille LED strips & HID lights

I am over 141k. I averaged around 21,000 miles a year :eek:
At least 10% of my miles go on her car, probably more. All the little late and weekend runs are with that.. Just bought an '11 Mazda3 5 spd w 21k.

Nice. Dont think I could own a car again after having a TB.
Agreed :biggrin: :biggrin: Once I owned my Dad's Yukon, there was no way i'd be driving a car again lol
 
First two vehicles were two door cars. Once I sat in the TB I was in love. Plus everytime I moved duty stations, everything I owned fit in the back on my TB with the seats down.

You have to drive it to get mileage...

When I bought mine in 2010 it had 31K miles. I have 92K on it now.

Do it. You looking for AW or AO?
AW even though most people don't like them. Either way, I've never seen anyone with switchbacks, guys around here that like leds would probably drool when they see switchbacks for the first time.
