Well, my bluetooth OBD2 thing came from Amazon yesterday and I bought Torque (I figured I've got $50 into the reader, so there isn't really a point in going with the free version of the app). I didn't want to bother figuring anything out last night, so it waited until lunchtime today. I hadn't played with any bluetooth things before and didn't know how easy it was. Everything came right up without a hitch.

Now my mini dash has gauges for throttle position, engine load, current and average MPG and something called an eco widget. I don't know what that is yet, but I'll figure out pretty soon if it's worth the screen space.

It'll be interesting to see how it works out. I figure worst case means I spent $55 and now have a code reader. Best case, I got a tool that's going to help me drive more efficiently. We'll see.
