I ran it down until it said I had 2 gallons left. I pumped 35 gallons of gas. It was either off by a gallon or my 36 gallon tank holds 37...

I believe these trucks have used the same fuel tanks since the 2004 (P221) truck. If I'm not mistaken, they were advertised at 36.7 gallons back then.

Aha! Well, then I was close to that.

Thanks ZBoater,

But what I was getting at is, does it record live video and superimpose the PIDs onto the video for YouTube uploading.
It's called Track Recorder in TorquePro, there is also Data Recording like the screen shot you are showing.

The ScanTool OBDLink MX Bluetooth has the fastest data transfer out on the market.

I guess this is a good as place as any to share this.
I just received my SCT X4, and the new SCT Whipple Tune today.
I had some questions so I went onto SCT website for some answers and I came across this:

SCT Performance - iTSX / TSX for Android Wireless Ford Vehicle Programmer**Part Number: 4015

I'm going to have to call them and find out if the ScanTool MX Bluetooth will work with their Android App.
It seems like I didn't even need to buy a programmer, you can do it all from your phone. (Sorry iPhone guys)
Load Tunes, save stock Tunes and there is even adjustment parameters just like the full programmer can do.

If I find out more info I'll post.

So I started a thread on ScanTools Forum on some info about the OBDLink MX BT, if anyone is interested that is.

Ahhh, video. No, I have not seem it. It has the racetrack option which superimposes your location on a Google map, but not video that I have found.

Yes, but if the gauges are similar to the Livewire, they are very limited. Dashcommand has a ton of dashboards and gauges, and a customizable gauge screen. I found the Livewire very weak in the gauges department.

That's funny they have an iPhone in the picture for the Android application. I didn't notice that before.
It does say underneath Smart Phones and Devices, so who knows.

So the LiveWire interface is different than the DashCommand?

One thing I really like in Dash Command is the performance screen.

Yeah, Livewire has like half a dozen gauge screens which are not customizable and not very useful. Dashcommand is a lot more comprehensive, as a lot more data it shows and has customizable dashboards and gauges. Night and day difference. Plus the screen on the Nexus 7 is a lot nicer than the Livewire.

I'm relegating my Livewire to tuner duty only, and using OBDLink and Nexus as my data display solution.
