Thanks for all the feedback everyone! Looks like I’ll be using some of that money from selling my motorcycle this weekend for the TCM option. :D
I was alright on a shopping spree and got mine direct from nick at Apollo after talking to him about it.... it was the best purchase in the bunch of stuff I had Bought. You won’t be disappointed

Yea I know a lot of people have complained they feel the price is pretty high, but I also was able to snag a brand new AccessPort on eBay for $450 instead of the standard $675. So all in $850 isn't too terrible!

Glad you're enjoying it and glad we could help get you setup!

Speaking of the Accessport, I was looking on ebay and see a lot of them for sale stating "Unmarried" so not tied to the vehicle Im guessing---but most of them say Subaru/mustang ect...can we purchase one of those and load up a tune for Our trucks, Is the V3 the latest Accessport version?

Anything to really look out for on a used one--seems the savings are pretty good?

HELL I ZONA
I bought my Cobb AP with TCM back in January , still have not installed waiting to put a few more miles on stock. Reputation is reason i went with Cobb , they spent a lot of time getting things right and safe , TCM came out later because they needed more time to get it right. I'm to old now to run tunes, that the engine is on ragged edge. Just let me chirp some gears and hit 100+ mph getting on the interstate on ramp.

This has everything you need to know: https://www.cobbtuning.com/buying-a-used-accessport/

Short answer is yes but you'll have to pay to have the accessport changed to the raptor version. If it's a cheaper part number than the raptor version, that's a charge. If it's still married that's a charge. It can add up quick. You'd have to get a pretty good deal to come out on top with the wrong part number imo.

As mentioned above. It would need to be unmarried and it would need to be the correct part number.

Just contact Cobb and purchase directly from them. Great customer service, and they'll provide any follow-up support you may need.

Or buy from nick at Apollo optics above? Great service, same warranty, and a wealth of knowledge. Plus he’s an active member, and it costs you nothing to support 2 people instead of just 1. Just saying
