Your right but it started to go south and I couldn't help myself.
A lope tune IMO has no purpose . It cannot be used as drivable tune and it's sole purpose again MO is just to make your truck sound like it has a cam in it like a gasser,stupid. As far as it helping warm up your truck, well if you say so ,I have my doubts.
Anyway,who cares but for sure when not if,it comes up again I believe that it will be ignored or perhaps a link to a previous discussion would be in order and closed.
I think it's funny that you say it has no purpose and then explain the purpose. If someone wants a lope tune they obviously want their truck to sound like it "has a cam in it like a gasser", which isn't stupid to them; Just because you and I don't like it doesn't make it stupid. A lope can be put on any tune, so there is no reason it isn't a driveable tune. Would I want to back up to a trailer with it, no; but it shouldn't be such a hard lope that it pushes you through the brakes either.
"A valet tune serves no purpose except to lower the performance of your truck for when someone else will be driving it, stupid." They should either buy a slower truck or not let others drive it. Oh wait, there are people who want or need that even though it gives no performance benefit and because they are paying for custom tuning they have that choice.
If you disagree with what someone says then don't answer or entertain them, if they are ignored and their "stupid" questions don't get answered they will find another board where they do get answered.
