Depends on what you want to do with the truck. The juice is a good box and you get a lot for your money. The smarty is better overall, but does have its drawbacks - such as no adjust on the fly and the need for gauges.

I had the juice with attitude for a week, a buddy sent me his smarty to try while his tranny was being rebuilt. Loved it so much i sold the edge and bought a smarty. Felt like it had more power on level 3 (smarty) than the edge did on 5 and I dropped 150* in EGT with the smarty.

They are both high quality products and neither will disappoint you. There is 1 key question you need to ask yourself.... how important is adjustability on the fly? If it is a priority, go Edge. If you can deal with changing tunes (approx 10 min) when you need more power, go Smarty.

I have both I tow with the edge and play with the smarty! Smarty will cost you alot more Cause your gonna need to get gauges and they dont just give those away were as the edge has your guages built in plus the edge has alot of saftey features to protect your motor and is adjustible on the fly like said before! I like em both

Could you have the edge all the time and then if you needed to go extreme on an occasion stack it with somthing such as a diablo predator? or go both smarty and juice just turn the edge off? any thoughts on all this guys?
