Tuner and delete regrets?

Anyone have any regrets about doing a tuner and or deletes? If so why? And not doing it sooner doesn't count!

I deleted with less than 2000miles on the clock only because h&s didn't have any SW for the 2012's...everything is great.

Hmm, they employees say my truck is hard to pull a trailer with now...something about the tires spinning on take off if you lean into it too much....


Oh, tires...it eats them quicker now.

Keep your DPF crap, reinstall before SMOG and take that garbage off. The tuners turn off all the EGR edit so no need to remove unless you really want to.

I've heard that the tuners turn off the EGR, if that is the case is there a significant reason to do the EGR delete? If the EGR valve isn't opening up then the EGR cooler and turbo shouldn't suffer from the gook?
