Not to disaggree with everybody. But I've got 135k on my stock 68rfe.. And I'm not easy on it. Around 70 passes at the track last year.. Pull a 10k lb travel trailer on a monthly bases.. I know that some fail under stock power and some survive. I do believe that what has helped mine is the OD software from H&S. But I don't like their tuning as much as smarty. And actually now I don't like either one. But efi isn't out for your truck yet. My main thing that I think hurts the 68rfe is the adaptive learning. This is where I think that H&S hurts more than smarty. Yes you have the pod function on smarty, but most don't use it. However, everybody uses the shift on the fly from h&s. SO imagine that your trans has gotten used to the 60 hp tune. Mild on h&s. You spend a couple weeks on that. And you pull up to a light and a punk is reving up next to you. SO you reach up and push that fancy button twice. Now your at the 175 hp tune, and ready to floor it. We'll your tranny is expecting a lower rate and you basically shock it. Just my thought on it. But its a different way to view it from what most people say. I personally think that the adaptive learning is what's eating up most of them. In one way or another.. Just my oppinion.. To solve that, get the xrt pro.. and the trans tuning. And let the tranny learn the power before you drive it like you stole it..
