    Does anyone have good experience with an OBDII scan software for a Windows laptop? I have read a lot about blue tooth options on this forum but I would prefer to use a USB connector to my laptop. Low or no cost is always nice ;)

    I have a brand specific software for my wife's car and it is super handy and would love to get similar functionality for the Taco.

    If you want free/cheap...there arent many options that are good, most of the software will cost ya... but there are options that are free but they cant be discussed on here... you can also get some software off ebay...

    Thanks. I think Techstream is really cool but a little expensive. I have been researching some more and thinking about EasyOBDII. Anyone ever used that?

    We live in different worlds then. $35 - $40 isn't expensive where I'm from.

    EasyOBDII is OK, but not anywhere near as good as Techstream.
