Hello everyone! I've been lurking around the forums for about a week now, reading up on various topics and just poking around. I despise signing up for new systems unless absolutely warranted, and I just couldn't stay out anymore!

A little information about me. I'm a software developer, woohoo, but I'm also a bit of a gearhead. I know my way around a motor and can work on a car without losing any extremities.

I currently own a '98 Lumina and an '85 Honda Sabre (V45), so a pretty inefficient vehicle and then of course the bike I drive whenever I can. I do tend to stick to the bike as often as possible because I get at least 50mpg even when driving hard, but due to recent changes in my life it's more convenient for me to drive a car to carry around passengers. Yay for ladies!

Anywho, while I don't have a proper vehicle for it yet I'm very interested in purchasing a car to turn into a much more efficient daily driver (a manual CRX, Civic or similar smaller car ideally). So hello again, and please feel free to shower me with any suggestions any of you have! I'm open to car model suggestions for purchase and extra equipment for any vehicle I drive!

Also... the Scan Gauge looks amazing, but I'm a bit confused by the open source alternative I've read about?
