Anyone familiar with these modules? Are they considered a type of tuner?

Yes, this is a tuner. Anything that changes the stock settings on your truck is considered a tuner. They're just saying that they leave no signs that you've tuned your truck through the ECM. I'm sure there is something in there if you were to dig deep enough into the ECM. Biggest issue is; if a code were to be tripped while running the program and you needed to go to the dealer for the issue. Your truck, your choice to take the risk!

Edit: What is the issue that you were looking at them? Just drive the truck like "you stole it". My lowly 2014 Tradesman does everything I've asked it to do, and that's with the 68RFE! If you don't seem to have the "gitty up" that you like, do a trans relearn to adjust how you press and the accelerator. I don't got WOT, but do push the RPMs to 2500 upon acceleration if needed.

I love the claims of up to 90hp and up to 20% FE gains............ Snake oil, I for one cannot see how anyone with for sure a 19+ truck needs more for a DD. My truck has more than double the HP/TQ that my old reliable 04 had from the factory. No short cummings in my opinion, but like TopZide says your truck and your wallet.... JM2C

My 2008, truck has the "SMARTY S67" tuner which I only added 60HP/120 TQ to the flywheel output over stock. This is what "MADDS" advertise for the trans to operate for long term use safely. I now have close to 150K on my truck, and I tow a heavy 5er with no issue to the 68RFE.

Just saying.
