    I don't think we can monitor tranny temp in our trucks. The real time MPG monitoring has been eyeopening to say the least...

    There are so many different combinations of gauges you can set up it is almost overwhelming. It comes preloaded with 6 pages, each one has a "theme" like mpg, power, engine/intake temps, etc... You can fully customize each page with what ever gauge you want. Honestly this has been the best $80 I have spent in a long time.

    If you do get one, make sure to pick up the ISO 9141 Isolation Cable if you have ABS on your truck. If you do not have ABS you don't need anything else but the Ultragauge.

    The scan gauge can monitor auto trans temps through the use of an xgauge code. @Digiratus yours does this correct?

    I think your right, I believe it was just the UltraGauge that couldn't do it. If ScanGauge had a screen like UG I probably would have gotten one

    Edit: I think the UG MX 1.3 can do trans temp

    Yeah the new UG in theory can, i haven't investigated if anyone found the codes yet though. I don't have an auto... The UG has the superior interface and display but the Scan gauge has longevity thus more codes as well.

    Yea you can change the lenses out. Different color filters and beam patterns. It has a drl feature aswell but i think that will just get you in trouble. the actual light output is reduced because of this design though.

    I was looking forward to the filter ability on this bar, but i feel i was let down a little. The light output is decent, but as stated it is reduced compared to the standard. I got it on a cyber Monday deal and only paid 59 bucks, so for what I have into it I am happy. The DRL function does not work, so Auxbeam sent me back 30 bucks (bringing the total down to 59).
