PEDAL COMMANDER for RAM 1500 New Body Style 2019-2025 Throttle Response Controller - Fits 5th Gen, Tradesman, Big Horn, Rebel, Laramie (3.0L, 3.6L, 5.7L, 6.2L) Gas and Diesel - Ram Truck Parts

As the heading shows, I drive a 17 RAM 3500 Dually with 4.10 and Aisin transmission so mine is considered the HO. There are a couple of things I didn't see when researching. 1. Nobody seems to have long-term use reviews. Everyone is talking about just installing, had it a day, love the power, etc... 2. Does it make the truck jerk from a stop (slam the diff) or does it cause any other drivability issues.I will be a little hypocritical with my review, as I have only had mine about a week or so. I do intend on keeping it installed at least until the January 31st return window (if it doesn't cause any problems with the truck I will keep it installed). I have towed empty, pulling my 19k lbs. fifth wheel, running Diesel additive, and without additive. In all these scenario's I have kept it tuned to either City +4 or Sport with no +/-.Even with the Aisin being a slightly stiffer transmission, I have been very impressed on how the truck feels now. I am not driving it like a rental car so I have not seen any decrease in fuel efficiency. I have not even tried the Sport Plus settings. It accelerates extremely smoothly and the power seems to come on gradually but quickly (if that makes sense). Anyone who drives the Aisin knows the feel of the 1st to 2nd injector cutout, and with the PC the hesitation or cut out seems to be much smoother or less apparent. I haven't had any hard upshift or downshifts. The turbo spools the same as far as psi goes. I know what psi I was running before and it seems to be the same after installing the PC. However, the power is much more instantaneous and causes the transmission to down shift accordingly. Even when towing the trailer, I didn't feel like the amount of power it gave was causing stress or damage to the motor or drive component (that was one of my concerns). I can control my speed while towing and driving empty much better, which I believe is giving me the same if not better MPG. Before the PC, when I added Hot shots Secrets EDT, I could notice a difference in idle but also acceleration. With the PC installed, the truck has an equivalent amount of power with or without additive. I will likely still use it for its cleaning capabilities but will only use the maintenance dose now instead of the performance dose.**Update**2 months now and 1 snow storm. I haven't had and CEL's and loved that I could turn down my throttle sensitivity when we had 24" of fresh snow. Being able to tame all that torque was key to keeping me on the road when it was snowing and icy. I am a bit surprised it didn't trigger any CEL when my truck goes into "battery saver mode" on really cold morning -4 to 13 degrees F. When the grid heater cycles, it drops to 11 Volts, but no Check Engine Lights. Very happy with that. I will say, I would never use the "eco" mode if I weren't in the snow! It makes the truck feel like a slug and very delayed turbo spool, but in the snow....perfect!*ONE MORE REVISION*So I have been using this a while and I will say there has still been no complications. I used this in conjunction with my Raceme ultra for a while and am not sure if I like it with the new software. It seems to mess with the shift points so the Aisin runs through the gears too quickly (not harsh or soft, just too fast). It shifted almost like normal when I put it on Tow/Haul mode but don't necessarily prefer the downshifting all the time in that truck setting. I turned it off with the Raceme and miss the throttle response but feel the truck shifts more appropriately with the new Raceme. Transmission shift points depend on drive pressure as well as throttle position and when the throttle band is changed and made more sensitive, it effected the shift points to a point I didn't think was safe for head pressure and engine boost.

I was not expecting this kind of response out of this product if you’re looking to to get a faster vehicle or to get more power pulling this is definitely the product you wanna buy trust me. I was skeptical at first, but now I stand behind it. It really does work and it really is what you’re looking for. The only thing I didn’t like was the way it mounted the vehicle.

It's been raining down here in South Florida. But, it's like night and day since I hooked it up. Get it folks. 2010 Ram 1500 Laramie. Can't wait till the roads start to dry up. Do a 400 feet burn out.

It's not going to become a rocket on wheels but most certainly surprise you

Would not work on my vehicle there was nothing wrong with it send it back

does what it says

I couldn't stop grinning from ear to ear the first time I stabbed the throttle. (I put it on Sport + mode right off the bat) I installed this on a 2014 Ram 1500 and the installation took all of 5 minutes..!! This will not void warranty because this does not mess with the computer of anything like that. If you are concerned at all about the warranty on your vehicle, simply spend 5 minutes and remove the Pedal Commander, then put it back on when you want to.I guess if you were to ask me.. What does this thing do? I would say something like.... It increases throttle response and sensitivity. Now, some might say.. so what? I cut my teeth on carbureted cars, and love the instant throttle response of the engine to the carburetor's accelerator pump's shot of raw gasoline. Modern fuel injected vehicles, sure better fuel mileage, atomization, etc... but the throttle response feels sluggish and slow compared to a carbureted vehicle. Now, if you are not old enough to ever have driven a V8 with a carburetor on it, none of this will make much sense to you. If the only thing you have ever driven is FI cars, well, the lazy pedal will seem normal to you.The Pedal Commander will make the engine respond a lot quicker. When I got my 2014 Ram 1500, with Hemi, I knew it had plenty of power, 395 HP. It moves the big sled briskly, I really like the truck, but the pedal was painfully sluggish. It almost seemed like, I could push the pedal half way down before it seemed like the engine would respond. I thought, I would like to have that changed, but couldn't really do it without getting into a programmer, hence voiding the warranty. I came across a forum where some guys were attacking the pedal commander. I think, it was maybe the company owner responded to the negative comments with professional and logical counters. I looked everything, and ordered the Pedal Commander like 10 minutes later. I could tell it was exactly what I wanted.This DOES NOT increase horsepower. That is not what it is supposed to do. It does exactly what it is supposed to do, increase throttle response. It is a perfect addition to my Ram 1500 for it's extremely lazy/sluggish accelerator pedal.I went straight to "Sport +" mode, the most aggressive mode. I couldn't stop laughing, I could barely take off without whipping my head back. Now, that setting was a little too aggressive for me personally, so I went "down" to "Sport" mode and I'm experimenting with that currently to see what I like. Since there are numerous settings, you can find a perfect setting for your personal taste.For Ram 1500 Hemi owners:This is perfect !! The pedal is sluggish as hell, then add in the "ECO" mode. That is when the engine runs on 4 cylinders instead of all 8 for economy. There is also a lag when the engine switches from 4cyl to 8cyl. Soooo.... combine the laggy accelerator pedal with the laggy switch from 4cyl to 8cyl, it "feels" really crappy during all that. The Pedal Commander helps do away with most of that. Not perfect, but REALLY nice compared to stock.17JAN17 Update:I found the "Sport" mode works best for me. Actually "Sport" mode then 2 clicks down. I sort of figured my miles per gallon would decrease, because since I drive my truck hard. This would be no fault of the Pedal Commander. Actually, it seems like I'm getting 1 or 2 extras mpg's now. The only thing I can figure is that, I was really annoyed with how sluggish the stock pedal was, so I was always heavy on it. Using, Pedal Commander, I can get the truck to respond the way I want with a lighter foot... I don't know.. I can see I'm getting a little better mpg's. Nothing drastic, but a little better.

Don’t think just buy it
