I bought a Superchips tuner for my 2001 Chevy 2500 4x4.
It can modify your shift points,etc. I bought it looking for a little more MPG.
I see no change either way in MPG, but you can over ride the factory settings meaning that your miles per hour and RPM are no longer limited. That is nice if you want to run in excess of 100 MPH.
Otherwise, save your money.
You also need to remember to set everything back to factory stock if you need to have your vehicle worked on. The chip tuner will just become an expensive paperweight if you have not set all back to OEM before other code readers get involved. They are VIN specific, if the codes get cleared by other than your tuner there is no way to ever make it work again.
The VIN can be changed if you switch vehicles as long as you have properly cleared the old information.
Your decision, but I feel save your money unless you need more top end. DOUG
