    the scanner won't load tunes, so you'll need the tuner to be able to load the tunes into your truck.

    The scanner will only do scanning options. To upload tunes you need the full setup. EFILive does not provide tunes if you are thinking that is what it means. You will want your own full tuner so you can license it to your truck ECM and TCM. I would goto to say Nick from www.duramaxtuner.com . He sells the Flashscan II and provides two free tunes as to what you want. There are others that offer services like that. Might check out www.dieselplace.com and www.duramaxdiesels.com forum sites for some good info.
