I tried that, and unfortunately they will only go by what their book says. I
would imagine that it bundles the Dakota from years 88-96, being that the 88's tow
rating is/was based on the 2000lbs bumper rating. He even asked me if I had a
class III/IV hitch!

Yes it's the performance computer, and when I run local towing around town
(flat land)I leave it in, and put in a can of 104+ octane booster. I do switch to
the old stock unit when hitting the hills/and long distance
