2011 Expedition Limited with HD tow package

I DD it.

About once a month I tow an 18' open trailer with a 5500 pound jeep on it. Use a WD hitch and have been impressed with the ability of the Expo.

I am looking for a programmer that has an interface to monitor gauges, like trans temp, etc... and also has pre-programmed tunes to select from like MPG tune for my daily driving and a tow tune for when I tow.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I would suggest going with custom written tunes over the preloaded tunes. There is usually a little more power and definitely the ability to get exactly what you are looking for especially on the transmission side.

I have no experience with them but 5 Star is a vendor here.

I don't have any suggestions for the tuner, but I think UltraGauge is one of the better options for monitoring engine/trans temp in terms of value. I think the UltraGauge MX and UltraGauge Blue (Bluetooth dongle for iPhone/Android) run about $80 now.
