It depends on what exactly do you want remapping and what kind of remap do you want for your van/truck (economy/power/flat spots), also a ford ecu will be different to an iveco for example so different results

I chipped my l200 the company I got the chip from reckons my truck at 134 bhp is now kicking out 164+ makes a big difference to power esp towing. Eliminates flat spots. Not improved fuel tho but no worse than before. Paid 350 ish for it but we'll worth the money. Dtuk performance chips/ upgrades is where I brought mine. They do loads of different ones.

my iveco has an injector fault = loads more power and awful mpg

I've had the chip in for 12 months with no problems at all. I had a car remapped once and it went down hill from there. I'd always stick to a chip rather than a remap.

Modern turbo diesels can achieve 30%more hp,so it can be worth doing, just it means you may go through parts quicker

For your dmax?

 

I find ours is a bit lacking in getting going with a fair load on. So would be interested in your results

 

Used a tun-it chip on the Navara d40 when that was here and made it go like stink.

That 30% is pretty much what the makers de tune by to add longevity to the engine. Any chip or boosting of power is eating into this safety margin, that said with careful use and not just clogging them everywhere they are ok.
