programmer questions

before dropping 300-400 dollars on a programmer i was wondering on the hypertech programmers you only have them plugged in and change the setting then unplug it right?

if so could you find someone and split it and use it on two trucks or borrow someone that has one and use it on your truck?

i have a 98 4.2 v6.

any help is greatly appreciated

Mfgrs of these are pretty smart. One of the 2 trucks will have to be at stock while the other one with the tune.

Continued:
Then after swapping them back and forth a few times it will probably vin lock to one of the trucks.
