I try, but I struggle getting the truck in tune. I ended up using this tuner and it is close but not perfect.

Maybe it’s time to upgrade my mod ?I found this works better..
For real. Yesterday was the first time I didn't us 93 oct. It was $4.18, while 87 was $3.28. $.90 difference between 87 and 93 at Texaco.
My commute is 20 miles each way plus I drive a fair bit for work (employer pays me mileage) and I burn at least a tank a week and sometimes more. I run either 89, mpg is better than 87 so it's a wash, or E15 88 which is about 20 cents less than 87.
Your service department is correct that you cannot install it yourself and keep the warranty, they are incorrect that it affects the warranty. Ford's website says it includes a 3/36 warranty from new, does not mention the extended warranty.According to my dealer, if they install the Ford Performance Pack, it'll knock you warranty down or remove it all together.... Even though Stage 3 replied this answer, to this question 2 years ago:
Does the ProCal 4 tool have the tuning already loaded? I've seen other sites that sell this unit without the tune, you must get the tune from ford. Do I have to have ford or a certified technician install this to get the 36000 mile warranty? I'm capable of installing myself, but curious if I void the warranty. Thank you

It's our understanding that the device does not come out of the box with a tune. You will need to use the include voucher with Ford online to get the tuning once you register on Ford Performance's site. In theory, there's no reason why you can't do this install yourself. Ford's instructions are here. As for your Warranty, Ford Performance states this calibration won't effect your powertrain or bumper-to-bumper warranties. However, all warranty decisions are up to individual service centers, and your best bet would be to talk to your service advisor directly.

My parts/service dept. at my local dealer said I could not install this myself and if they installed it, at say, 10k miles on the truck, you only got partial warranty to 36k miles. If you have an extended warranty, this nulled it?
I've read things on here that some dealers don't care and some dealers are assholes about "performance" upgrades/warranty issues.
I for one, bought an SCT BDX Programmer and got Torrie @ Unleashed Tuning to program my '21. I believe the SCT box has more features than the FPP one?
