I've seen some discussions on the Tazer DT from years past and was just wondering if anyone has recently gotten a Tazer DT for their truck and if so, do they work well or are some of the issues others were having a few years ago still prevalent. I really only want it to change the tire size on my truck, I may use a few other features but that is really the main feature.

Any reviews will help.

NOTE: I'm considering buying one used off of FB Marketplace, the seller says he's simply selling his truck and doesnt need it. Do you recommend not getting a used one? Will it Marry to my truck if it's been used before?

As long as previous owner unmarries it from his truck, you can marry it to yours. I'm not sure about compatibility with 2024s though

Gotcha, that is good to know, I'll message the seller and make sure he's got in unmarried. I've got a 2020 so should be ok, just wondering if the bugs that I've seen people complain about in the past are still around now a days.

Shouldn't be any issue on your 2020

I bought a used one off eBay, turns out it was NOT unmarried. Zautomotive does offer an "unmarry" service for $50 that I made use of. Luckily the seller did right by me and gave me a partial refund to cover it. I wouldn't say the device is worth retail. I've encountered a few quirks and bugs. I've relayed them back to Zauto.

For instance I would not use the PIN function. I've seen stories on YouTube where people's RF Hubs are getting fried because the Tazer is fighting the RF hub to let the vehicle start. I tried it a few times, and even on the latest software its wonky to get it responding correctly on the first try. I've used the KillByFob, that disables the gas pedal when locked with the fob. I then hear the ETC flapping the TB randomly when the truck is off. If I were in a shady area I might use it but not for everyday. The BrakeHold function only seems to work after you've surpassed a certain MPH and then stop, and will only engage if you shift to park then back to drive. That bugged me so I disabled it. And the window down/up feature with the fob sometimes needs several tries before it responds.

Changing tire size is easy, changing the EVIC splashes is cool even if only a few work, killing the 3 beeps is awesome, killing the slam into park when the door is open is cool too. Having the TC button mapped to fully kill TC & ESC is a nice shortcut for some fun. The light shows are cool. Making your own takes some trial and error and should be noted they work better when the truck is running and lights are on if you are trying to get a strobe effect. It's more of a set and forget for me. I paid about $150 all in and I'm happy at that price point.
