Pedal Commander Review 5.7

I in joy the shit out of mine.

 

For what it's worth, Amazon has this on sale today for $269...
I had one in my cart and noticed the message about the price drop. It was $299 yesterday.

 

Do it!

 

I recommend going to Banks Power web site and look at the Banks Pedal Monster before deciding to buy a pedal commander.

 

I still have mine for sale. Used (like new) for less than a year before I installed a SC.

 

Those are just as expensive as Pedal Commander it seems. If you're looking to save some money, check out HikeIt. Anyway, I think these things are silly. I grabbed a Pedal Commander last winter to check out and returned it after a few days. Just seems way over priced when I can just push the pedal down further or push tow/haul if I want to drive around like a spastic. It just isn't worth it for me. I just turned 40 so maybe I'm chilling out a bit. Lol

 

I bought a sprint booster and love it. I don’t even notice the sluggish pedal anymore. My wife turned it off and forgot to turn it back on to my setting and when I got in and hit the gas I panicked as if something was wrong. Then realized it was not on. It make a huge difference to me.

 

You are correct, they are just as expensive. But if someone is going to spend the money, Pedal Monster is a better product in my opinion.

 

I had a Pedal Commander on my '19 Tacoma and now have one on my 2021 Tundra. I "hear" everyone in what they are saying regarding their opinion on the PC and the various other brands out there. I know my PC worked for my 2019 Tacoma, hence the reason I bought one for my 2021 Tundra. It works for me and my demands on my Tundra, and obviously others have their varying opinions (hopefully) based on their own experiences with it installed in their Tundra. My 2021 has a noticeable acceleration difference just using the T/H selection and since installing the PC the immediate acceleration is even more noticeable. I may not get better gas mileage (NOT why I bought my Tundra), and I might not set any land speed records because there will always be a faster truck/car out there. However, as I read it earlier in this thread MY "butt dyno" tells me that my Tundra is quicker from a stopped position, just like my Tacoma was, and for what the PC cost compared to other Tundra mods, the PC is the best bang for the few bucks.
Btw...GovX offers a $35 off Military Discount which made it an even easier 2nd time purchase. Just my .02 cents...

 

Ì had on on my 19 and it does change the sensitivity, got a tune at Ott he adjusted the pedal sensitivity so I took it off. It's available if anyone needs it.

 

still have it?

 

My tundra is super sentisive already.
I’m looking to tune it down for off road. Yes I actually take my tundra wheeling.
Are there settings to de tune it ?

I know this is a crazy question.

 

Get rid of it and get the Banks Pedal Monster. Safer and much better unit.

 

I don’t have any pedal modifications.
I’d like to make mine less sensitive .

 

If you put the Pedal Commander in Eco mode, it makes the throttle sensitivity way less than factory. I’ve found this very useful when I just need a smidge of throttle (like climbing a hill), avoiding jerky forward movement, and tires spinning, particularly in 4WD. That option’s probably available on the Banks as well. Gather info and make your own decision on which to buy. Avoid people telling you exactly what to do like @Tundra234; he’ll command you to get train horns next. Plenty of people running Pedal Commander with no issues, and I’ll betcha a can or line of coke that if you search enough, there’ll be issues with the Pedal Monster as well. If the Pedal Commander wasn’t a good option, Keith @dirtydeeds wouldn’t be selling it.

 

He has been selling them for years. The issue it with the Bluetooth version.

 

Hike It has an off-road/eco mode as well. It doesn’t have Bluetooth mode but it has other features PC does not. Also the throttle curve is smooth and not a dog leg like PC.

 

Funny thing is, I have train horns.

real train horns off a train. Lol

 

FWIW: I'm ready to sell my PC (PC27: 2007-2021 5.7L) for $125 (shipped). Moving over to a Banks PM w/iDash.

 

I love the Banks compared to the PC. @Ginsterkev has the iDash and the vent mount...looks nice.

 

Banks PM doesn’t have a muted throttle like an ECO mode. The Banks engineer who designed PM explained why on one of the Banks threads on this. forum

 

Vent mount, check

Just shopping around hoping I see a deal on the PM/Gauge...

Sweet, since both apply do I get 2X discount...

Docs submitted, waiting on code

 

The mil discount is the best that I was able to find when I got the PM a few months ago. I didn't get the iDash because I was already running the new ScanGuage 3. I run 295/70's and my truck is happy on the Sport with 5 bars setting.
