    I am looking for someone that has installed a display that provides gas mileage readout in their Taco.
    I have an 09, double cab, TRD Sport. I want to install a display to monitor fuel consumption similar to a factory display.
    I use software called ProScan to take the information from the ODBII connection and display it on my laptop. If you are curious about the software, you can find it at myscantool.com.
    Please let me know what is available and what you folks have done, if anything.

    It has dozens of digital gauges you can select, and some you can program. See http://www.scangauge.com/

    Another vote for the Scangauge!!

    Scangauge does all sorts of stuff and displays all sorts of data. It'll also pull CEL codes. I've had one for a couple years.

    will scan gauge give you distance to empty? does it "see" the gas tank level of the truck?
