adding chip to F250
I have a 2016 F250 with a 6.7 diesel, 6 speed automatic. Has anyone tried putting a chip in one of these trucks to get better MPG and do you think it would harm the truck? Thanks, Happy Camping

If that is not a chip or programmer, what is it? According to the video, the guy says it is "warranty safe" because the vehicles computer will not "know" that the thingamagig is installed - I find that hard to believe. Of course, no where is it said that it is "warranty allowed". Interesting and very careful use of words.
That thing might work, but along with most others here I wouldn't put it on an engine that is still under factory warranty.
From what I understand it is a computer that ramps the fuel up from the vehicles computer signals. I'm not trying to sell the thing and I don't have one either. I have been thinking about getting one though and trying it out. Not for the claimed fuel mileage increase but for another reason. The reason it is called warranty safe is because it can be unplugged and removed before taking the vehicle in. It is installed after the computer so it don't change any of the computers settings so they say it's untraceable. IDK. It's not "warranty allowed" because anything you put on your truck that is aftermarket has the chance to void some warranty. A simple grill guard could void a warranty.
Roger that! I actually did think you had bought one. Thanks for the clarification.
