    Has anyone switched from a Pedal commander to the Banks Pedal monster? I see that some have had the PC fail on them. I have one in the 4Runner and the Tundra and have not had an issue with either one, but I'm wondering if its worth switching to the Banks. The Banks does have the revert to stock safety features in the event of a failure. @shawn474 what inputs do you have on this and the comparison between the two when it comes to sensitivity, gear hunting, etc. Thanks.

    The banks is far superior in my opinion - granted Pedal Commander left a bad taste in my mouth but after doing the research, learning about the technology and hearing / personally witnessing the pedal commanders issues, I would have bought the Banks first had I known. The Banks is very customizable and something that I use on my daily drives, towing, etc. I don't think there is an issue with gear hunting or sensitivity as it is super programmable. I had to play around with what fit my driving style the best - I would chirp my tires on a couple of the settings if I wasn't careful. I think I have settled on City +3 for my daily driving but will check and let you know for sure. There really is no comparison in my opinion, but that's mostly because I had serious issues with the PC and none (so far) with the Banks.

    Gotcha. Of course I realized the issue of my SG3 is currently using the OBD port. I may still get a Banks for the 4Runner though.
