I watched the Kickstarter - OP's vid of the unboxing told me nothing, I will never understand the fascination with unboxing videos.

GoFar's philosophy is that their device learns where your vehicle's consumption per mile is at its absolute lowest, and its simple go/no-go indicator light changes color to show when you're in the butter zone.

That's $89. My OBDII dongle cost $23 and I paid another $5 for Torque Pro. The dongle combined with Torque Pro puts me in touch with a LOT more information and all of GoFar's functions can be matched with a simple Torque plugin.

Nice idea and probably appropriate for a lot of drivers who aren't as engaged with their vehicles as they could be, but it delivers less performance for more money than other options.
