PEDAL COMMANDERThrottle Response Controller compatible with Ram 1500 New Body Style 2019-2025 Gas & Diesel, Plug-and-Play Upgrade, App Control and Anti-Theft, Off-Road Performance, Ram Truck Parts

We have a 2016 Ram 2500 Diesel 6 speed auto. Great truck but has a terrible lag at initial throttle up from a stop and same thing while driving say 30 steady speed and you need to accelerate quickly for whatever reason.I am not a lead foot or impatient driver by any means but this situation is bothersome. I looked at chips and programmers with a bunch of conflicting information and sketchy reviews and to be honest, don't feel the truck needs more power anyway, just better power management.Enter Pedal Commander. We purchased it and installed it recently. It is cheaper than many alternatives and is crazy easy to install. Simple and straight forward plug and play. I waited 30 minutes after running the truck and put my keyless keyfob about 80 feet away to prevent any chance of having the truck live in any way when unplugging the throttle sensor for hookup.Down loaded the App into my phone, started the truck, entered the serial number in the app and it was done. Honestly that simple.I started with City no boost and noticed it felt better. Pushed the increase button and tried again and yes, noticed it was better yet. I cycled through all of the options one at a time and can feel a difference with each mode and each power option.I like the sport mode somewhere between 0 and maximum, have not decided yet which one is best but this is the real deal. No need for a programmer if all you want is a better feeling and more responsive Diesel Ram with the 6.7 Cummins like I did.Still some lag when driving steady at 30 or so and wanting instant acceleration as the transmission will downshift when you push the accelerator pedal but it is SO much better.Also, I was very concerned that with this mod that it would be difficult to hold a steady speed. That is mildly true but not difficult at all. I really like the feel of the truck over stock and find it easier to drive but also easier to speed.I have noticed about 1.5 MPG lower average so far but with all the playing I have done, deserve it. I will update after the play factor wears off. Have not seen any smoke yet which is important for me as I hate the black smoke crap.Also, I miss understood the sales pitch on the Pedal Commander. It has several performance options in EACH performance range, not just a play on words as I sort of assumed they were saying. So many folks over state what they are selling can do but not this one.Sorry for the long read.

My 2020 ram with the 5.7 hemi came to life. Plus helped witg furl mileage in economy mode. Easy install.

As the heading shows, I drive a 17 RAM 3500 Dually with 4.10 and Aisin transmission so mine is considered the HO. There are a couple of things I didn't see when researching. 1. Nobody seems to have long-term use reviews. Everyone is talking about just installing, had it a day, love the power, etc... 2. Does it make the truck jerk from a stop (slam the diff) or does it cause any other drivability issues.I will be a little hypocritical with my review, as I have only had mine about a week or so. I do intend on keeping it installed at least until the January 31st return window (if it doesn't cause any problems with the truck I will keep it installed). I have towed empty, pulling my 19k lbs. fifth wheel, running Diesel additive, and without additive. In all these scenario's I have kept it tuned to either City +4 or Sport with no +/-.Even with the Aisin being a slightly stiffer transmission, I have been very impressed on how the truck feels now. I am not driving it like a rental car so I have not seen any decrease in fuel efficiency. I have not even tried the Sport Plus settings. It accelerates extremely smoothly and the power seems to come on gradually but quickly (if that makes sense). Anyone who drives the Aisin knows the feel of the 1st to 2nd injector cutout, and with the PC the hesitation or cut out seems to be much smoother or less apparent. I haven't had any hard upshift or downshifts. The turbo spools the same as far as psi goes. I know what psi I was running before and it seems to be the same after installing the PC. However, the power is much more instantaneous and causes the transmission to down shift accordingly. Even when towing the trailer, I didn't feel like the amount of power it gave was causing stress or damage to the motor or drive component (that was one of my concerns). I can control my speed while towing and driving empty much better, which I believe is giving me the same if not better MPG. Before the PC, when I added Hot shots Secrets EDT, I could notice a difference in idle but also acceleration. With the PC installed, the truck has an equivalent amount of power with or without additive. I will likely still use it for its cleaning capabilities but will only use the maintenance dose now instead of the performance dose.**Update**2 months now and 1 snow storm. I haven't had and CEL's and loved that I could turn down my throttle sensitivity when we had 24" of fresh snow. Being able to tame all that torque was key to keeping me on the road when it was snowing and icy. I am a bit surprised it didn't trigger any CEL when my truck goes into "battery saver mode" on really cold morning -4 to 13 degrees F. When the grid heater cycles, it drops to 11 Volts, but no Check Engine Lights. Very happy with that. I will say, I would never use the "eco" mode if I weren't in the snow! It makes the truck feel like a slug and very delayed turbo spool, but in the snow....perfect!*ONE MORE REVISION*So I have been using this a while and I will say there has still been no complications. I used this in conjunction with my Raceme ultra for a while and am not sure if I like it with the new software. It seems to mess with the shift points so the Aisin runs through the gears too quickly (not harsh or soft, just too fast). It shifted almost like normal when I put it on Tow/Haul mode but don't necessarily prefer the downshifting all the time in that truck setting. I turned it off with the Raceme and miss the throttle response but feel the truck shifts more appropriately with the new Raceme. Transmission shift points depend on drive pressure as well as throttle position and when the throttle band is changed and made more sensitive, it effected the shift points to a point I didn't think was safe for head pressure and engine boost.
