If you have an 06 f 150 best to check your hex code .
I have been waiting for the clowns at edge to do an update since july.
I was told by Edge that they have all that they need to do the update when and If they get around to it some time in Sept

If you have a 2004 and later I do believe it is worth the money. If you want to tow with the 2003 and earlier it "might" be worth it. I think it is. It does firm up the shifts and if the Average MPG figures are right I get about 2 to 3 more mpg pulling the same trailer.. But as far as adding seat of the pants power you will never feel it. But I never have ran it on level 3 so I might be missing something. For what I bought it for it does great. Do not buy it for the Trans Temp gauge because it is not there on the model that does up to 2003.

Yes, it is worth the money. Look back a few days and find the review that I posted. Install is less than 10 minutes. Pod sticks to the dash with velcro strips. Throttle response is definitely improved on level 2, and acceleration is very nice. Contrary to what someone else posted, there is a big seat-of-the-pants improvement in power in level 2. Several family members have driven it on level 2 and they commented on how much better it felt, and it prompted a couple of them to get tuners. Level 3 is awesome.

It has 3 tunes programmed from the factory. You can also create your own custom tunes. It will data log. It has a built in set of monitors and you can display up to 4 of them at a time. It also has alerts that will trigger an alarm on certain events, such as high coolant temp.

If you want some good info about it go to their web page and download the manual. It will tell you everything about what the edge can do. I also give it a thumbs up as being a good buy for the truck. The gauges are also a good addition.

Now SCT is coming out with a very simular setup. Not sure as to when it will be avaliable or price but it looks to be a good deal. The difference is that it will containt 3 custom tunes.

Just another view.

The edge makes a big difference all around and cant amagine going back to a stock tune. And thats just the tuner, no exhaust or CAI.

I would hate to have to give up my Edge. You better not try to take it away from me either!
