I would like to see the ability to lock up the torque convereter at will. Also, mucking with the ABS would be nice... as in braking one wheel at a time...

It'd be nice if for us boys with the older trucks if the edge could do the miles left to the tank like some of the new trucks do to compliment the MPG display.

A DTE (Distance to Empty) wouldn't be bad, but it would only work if we have a way to know how much fuel is in the tank. I am not sure if there is a PID that has that information but I will look into it and see. I wouldn't hold my breath on that one though.

Take care.

OCP,

When I say PIDs (Parameter IDs), I am referring to the Ford specifc Diagnostic PIDs that would give you such things as RPM, Timing, Vehicle Speed, etc. I would assume that ScanGauge uses the same Diagnostic PIDs, only the have a more thorough list available.

How about a way to enter in the cost of gasoline per gallon, and then display the cost per hour in real time?

"Hmm, that burnout cost me 30 cents..."

Wait - I don't want to know!

Another cool function I used to have in a prior vehicle that my truck doesn't have is maintenance interval alert. Is it possible with Evo?
I know it's not performance related and kind of silly but I actually miss that function.
