I don't have personal experience, just what my dealer told me. The
mechanic's dad has one on his 5.2. He also tows. Apparantly towing with the
new computer is NOT recommended. He says the transmission (automatic) shifts
or flutters between 3 and 4 during towing. If he tows, he either locks out
overdrive or switches computers. Overall his recommendation is positive. He
obviously doesn't mind switching computers back and forth, so it must be
worth it!
Thats my $0.02.
