Is it weird that I'm getting the best MPG's on the street using the Crawl Tune?
Can I do any damage to the Engine or Tranny?

Are you sure that you are in the crawl tune?
As far as I knew the tune only uses 1st and 2nd gear, and dumbs down the throttle. No 3rd and above gears.

Yes sir I am sure! Throttle lags until 2,500 RPMs and then it opens up with a nice low growl. If I keep it under 2.5K, gas milage goes up. It goes through all gears, including OD in my auto tranny, no limitations on speed whatsoever.

I don't think that it would make any issues with the Jeep.

That sounds like my everyday driving, seldom over 2500rpm or 25-30mph... My 09 rubi w/man tran is my DD and I only live about a mile away from work, so my engine is hardly warmed up by the time I'm shutting her down, I wonder if I can also see results in the crael, as i expect he was referring to crawl mode? It sounds like over 2500rpm it runs normal according to rickster? Anyone else have any input?

Yes, I'm referring to daily driving in the Crawl Mode, I just keyed "e" for "w". Although in other tunes I also try to keep it under 2,500 RPMs. The throttle response is almost none existent below 2500, and with a push of the it pedal jumps it up to 2500 where it "opens up" much more than with any other tune.
I will monitor throttle opening in Crawl and 89 to see any differences below and above 2500, as soon as I stop playing with the Tranny Temp monitoring.
BTW, English is my second language, so please be quick to point out any gramatical horrors. Also, I have big fingers, so do not hesitate to mention any typos, like "e" for "w" LOL.

If the crawl tune did not shift beyond 2nd gear I would never use it. Now I want to try it and see.
