Audio mostly but have been checking the V8-V4 setting a lot lately since I used a programmer to supposedly lock out AFM until above 50mph seems to be working best I can tell so far....I use the tilt meter thing a lot when out on the farm was on a 49 degree slope the other day felt like I was going straight up all you could see was the sky LOL like ole TopGun in his little airplane Vroom

If you dont mind; what programmer did you use and how do you like it?

Speed mostly but I enjoy challenging the fuel consumption monitor especially on longer drives!

Mostly on the speedometer, but I like the fuel Econ screen as well

I bought the HyperTech 2.0 part 2000 HOWEVER I actually put the factory tune back in this afternoon when I pulled up in the driveway. Had something really odd happen the "reduced engine power notice" came on today anytime the engine gets over 3000rpm and truck slugs out. I had loaded the premium fuel tune and it ran great until I filled back up with Shell 93 octane on Thursday. My thought is that POSSIBLY Shell sold me regular grade for premium? We have had a fuel shortage in middle TN for the last couple of weeks and I suspect that they have messed up and put regular fuel in their premium tank at my local store but I do not know how to check octane level in fuel to prove it...... Going to do some research on the internet to see if I can find out some information. It just seems to be too much of a coincidence that it ran perfectly for a week and then with this last tank of fuel I started having this problem. With factory tune back in the issue is completely gone. Anyone know of an easy to use fuel octane test meter?

Blank, because I'd rather watch the road than a little screen.

 

Same reason I took out speedometer, tach, fuel/temp/volt gauges ;-)

Great advice, I may see if I can find a piece of cardboard today and just duct tape over my entire dash so I have no distraction when driving. however I Might scribble a few motivational quotes on the cardboard in case I get bored. (kind of like I am now) “It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.”– Aristotle

Speed mainly because it's easier to see than the round speedometer. Every so often I cycle through all the screens to check things. Especially fuel mileage, miles left on tank, and trans temp when I'm towing my travel trailer.

This. I will cycle ever so often on long trips but usually it lives on blank page

Audio... If not steering wheel audio control don't work.

Why would the steering wheel controls not work? Mine work just fine no matter what screen I'm on.
