    It's crazy how noticeable the pedal commander is. Getting 18-19 mpg and 60-65 mph.
    Bumper and winch coming in December also with new speakers.

    How is the pedal feel now with the commander?

    I’ve looked at the Pedal Commander before as they are a big sponsor at Motortrend.

    Is it worth it or should I go for a tune?

    The pedal commander noticeably improved throttle response. Don't get me wrong, still won't win a drag race. But with the lift and bigger tires it's not nearly as sluggish. Also, it's not always shifting when on cruise control at 60-65 mph.

    I do not recommend the Pedal Commander. The Banks Pedal Monster is a better unit and has Fail safe technology in which the Pedal Commander does not.

    How are you liking the Cornfed 2/1 kit? How's the ride quality?

    I love the Red! I had those same tires on my Cherokee and really liked them. Surprisingly good traction even in all conditions, and they wore very well. They do tend to get noisy as they wear down, but overall I thought they were a really good tire, especially for the price.

    That color is not red. It's Solar Octane.

    My bad! Weird, on my phone it looks like an intense red, but on my laptop it's clearly something different! I do like it though!

    FWIW, it definitely looks red on my iPad. I’ve seen Solar Octane and it’s a great color in person for sure.
