Hey I have a 2019 ram 2500 6.7L and I'm looking at getting either the idrive or pedal commander and was seeing if anyone is running them and if they have had any issues with them.
 
lots of folks run some flavor of dead pedal fix. easy to install, great results on a non tuned truck.

Thats what I've heard and why I am looking at this route until the warranty is up on my truck. It's hard finding cons for these which is a good thing. Just curious on if the extra hundred bucks for the pedal commander is worth it or not
 
I ran the idrive unit. lots of adjustments. I need to put mine up for sale since I don't use it any longer.
 
I only ran it for a month or so before I changed it up. I doubt you'd pick up much of anything, unless you wanted to try and hypermile it.

Thats what I was kind of figuring. That it wouldn't make a difference just give a better Power band possibly
 
I have the banks pedal monster. Worth every penny. Seems to have made the truck more responsive around town. The phone app works great for adjusting. I chose banks because it also uses OBD to power. I have read about issues with PC and the units who only get power from the pedal circuit. I initially had it on sport level 3, and have dialed it back to city level 3. I have no concerns leaving it at this level and tossing the keys to my wife or anyone else for that matter.

Ok thanks I forgot about banks. I'll look into it.

I use Banks as well, due to the other issues listed above by competitors. Have zero complaints. Nice to be able to adjust via phone app on the go. I’m constantly tweaking. Mostly just use it to remove dead pedal from a stand still, which it does nicely.

Is worth noting that the Banks Pedal Monster is compatible via daisy chain to several other products like their Dillinger tuner and idash systems.
 
Been running the Pedal commander for years, there are no cons.
 
My reservation with the Pedal Monster is that it uses the OBD. Does anybody use these with AMP steps? The Amp steps also plug into the OBD. I have heard that somethings don't get along with the Pedal Monster.
 
there are several options that use the tps harness.
