    I actually tried the Tow tune next, and ah'll be danged if I haven't picked up about 3/4 of an mpg around town on 89 octane gas!!! I pull a LOTTA hills, in short hop, stop-n-go traffic, so it seems to be just what the doctor ordered - to help tow itself around town!

    These are some heavy SUV's... holding on to those gears a bit longer probably helps on those hills!

    I thought you had to run at least 91 octane when on the tow tune?

    I never heard that before. I think the tow tune really only changes the transmission shift points and stop it from going into over drive.

    I was so sure I went out and went through the motions to tune it. Sure enough it did not say anything about 91 octane. Sorry for the misinformation.
