Scan Gauge

I found this gauge from another odyssey forum,

it used for scan codes.... Is this good? It costs like $120. from their website

www.scangauge.com

Any input on this? It's cool to use for the mpg measure

i wouldnt spend the money to see how my gas mileage is doing.

most of what you're paying for is the obdII scanner.

That thing is so ugly it should be installed inside your trunk under the spare tire cover. It looks like a refugee from a 60s sci-fi flick.
