Question:

I have an 05 Silverado 1500 that I tow a 5700 lb. trailer. I use 87 octane fuel for economy. I would like to increase mileage by tuning the shift points and any other possible tune. 5.3L engine.

There is a tuner that will work with your 2005 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a 5.3L V8 and allows for tuning the shift points as well as shift firmness, which is a tuner and monitor from Edge:

- Edge Gas Evolution CTS3 Performance Tuner - Color Screen # EP39YR

I verified with Edge that the CTS3 # EP39YR allows you to tune the shift points for better fuel economy; it also has a rev limiter which can do the same, and has a large, 5 inch color touch screen so it's super simple to use.
