    I'm curious - would it make sense to talk to your insurance company? See if they'll lower the rates if you install the gizmo. Maybe enough to pay it off in .. say.. 18 months?

    the vorad I used was on a company truck about 9 years ago..

    the ecm experience I have is as a fleet owner (7 trucks) and as a mechanic.

    as for the ecm storing anything more than TP and engine data -

    show me...

    I have never seen it - and on the detroit and cummins and mercedes control function screens there is no data like that available.

    And now we wait for the proverbial "I guess I was wrong" post...


    Who am I kidding? We're truck drivers. We're never wrong! Right? :biggrin_25516: :biggrin_2559: :biggrin_255: :biggrin_25512:

    wow - very cool info...

    did not know it - admit my error.


    pretty cool info on that site - still wonder what sort of interface you need since as I stated before - that info does not show on handheld calibration / metering units.

    I'm guessing a lap-top with the right software to pull the info.
