    Thanks, I'm very happy. Bought the paint from automotivetouchup.com. Also used their SprayMax 2K Urethane Clearcoat, that stuff is legit. I first hit it with plastic adhesion promoter, then 4 coats paint and 3 coats clear coat.

    The PM has reverse gear sensing (unless you are running it in "No OBD" mode like I am), and it also has ActiveSafety which returns to stock pedal in the event of a failure. The Pedal Commander will leave you with a dead pedal if it fails.

    The Banks pedal monster also has a dedicated 12v power source. Something the Other guys don’t. Biggest fail point is the PC relying on the 5v power source available at the factory pedal connection.

    Warm weather here, plan on starting to use the truck again for some fun adventures after it sat all winter.

    Doing everything in my power not to modify it. Just rolled 8,500miles on it in 3 years of ownership.

    Yes it is 2 connectors at the pedal and one at the OBD port. I have had the Pedal Commander since 2018 and switched to the Banks. They are definitely more noticeable over stock.

    Hesitant to switch to anything that is plugged into the OBD port as my radio is using it for monitoring through the screen. I enjoy that feature.

    You can run the PM and your radio using the splitter. You just run the PM in "NO OBD" mode. I run the PM and my ScanGauge 3 off of the OBD port. Now on my truck, my monitoring on the Pioneer doesn't use the OBD. It goes through the black data cable that came with the Maestro. Yours may be different since it's a 2016.
