    Ok. I was looking at getting a cheap 4 banger Ranger to save gas. Not really gonna save me a whole lot, but I have been looking into the programmers. For what they cost vs. what they could save me would make them well worth it. I have been reading on the different ones. The best way to see which ones are best is to see who uses them right? So here is a poll on which you think is best for me. I will give you specs below. If you care to elaborate please do cause I want to make a very well educated choice.

    2001 Ford F150 Super Crew
    5.4 Automatic
    Mods: Cherry Bomb Extreme exhaust, Pro Comp ES9000 Shocks

    REMEMBER MY ULTIMATE IS GOAL IS GAS MILEAGE PERIOD!

    I voted edge. Customize your intake and get the Edge custom tuned by php.
    I have just an edge and with my mods and a bed cover I got 18mpg doing 60 over 150 miles. I average 15 with mixed driving.

    Im looking at getting a tuner also, but I'm undecided on which one. I have shorty headers and single straight pipe. but plan to add dual pipes and CAI

    free flowing exhaust, e fans, gotts mod, and silencer removed will give you a good mpg gain.

    My mods are efans, gotts mod, silencer removed, flowmaster 40 series with gutted cats. I average 17 but have seen up to 20 on several occasions.
