I was on the Superchips web site and started to put in my truck details and it asks For the 2010 if it is a 5.7 MDS VCT or non MDS VCT. What is MDS VCT and how do I know which mine is?

Dodge added the MDS system in 2006, so any hemi motor 06 and newer has MDS. 03-05 is non MDS. Having said that, the tuners do not change whether you have an 2003 or a 2010...they are all the same.

I believe the non mds would be for the heavy duty trucks. The 1500's have mds but the heavy duties do not

Not to be a jerk but this is not true. I am about 99% you can delete MDS option when you order a 1500 or at least you could at one point if you can't now and on 2500 and larger it does not have MDS. There is no up charge for MDS when it is indeed available for a particular model.

Used to be the 3/4 and 1 ton hemi trucks did not have MDS in '06. Maybe that's true in 2010? Research Diablo as well, I've got a nice dyno tuned 2010 program.

You can delete MDS with a tuner, but it is not available as an option from the dealer on the half tons.

you have a few of your "canned" tunes for us 1500 fellas? I've really been tossing around getting a more aggressive tune for the truck (2010 1500).
