ive been looking at a scan guage for a little while now and was wondering what features dont work on rangers and is it worth having for the money you spend on it?

Thanks

 

I really liked mine when I had it on my Ranger. That was before the Ultra Gauge was out though so there wasn't really another option.

 

you wouldent happen to still have it would you? lol

 

Haha no, sold it shortly after getting my Edge programmer

 

darn, well im just looking for a guage that does pretty much the stuff the scan guage II does but i looked it up at auto zone and they want $160 for it

 

Not to turn this into an Ultragauge vs. Scangauge thread, but if you are looking for something with a more reasonable price, than Ultraguage is the way to go. They're about a hundred bucks cheaper.

 

Yeah, go UG

 

Ultragauge gets my vote

 

UG fo lyfe.

 

Both are good. I opted for a Scan Gauge II.

 

im thinking about getting the scan gauge cause of its compact size and ease to put in a place, i was looking at the ultra gauge and its like a gps and i dont really want something hanging on my windshield

 

i modded my UG mount.

 

I got a Garmin GPS a while back, and never really used it because of this reason, but I just recently hooked it up now I forget it's even there unless I'm intentionally using it. Unlike a GPS though, a gauge doesn't have to be on the window, so you could always mount it somewhere else, like under the center stack, or on the dash like SteelDirigible.

 

i like my scanguage also. the ultra looks nice but too big IMO, it wouldnt work for where i have my SC mounted.

 

the UG is taller, but not as wide and thinner than the scangauge.

i do wish it would show volts.

 

this is were i mounted my SG, the ultra wouldnt have worked up there too well i dont think.

 

it does on mine. maybe they were able to solve this problem from 06 to 08.
patrick, another member put his there. i put mine in the lower left corner.

 

Works good for me

 

I put my UG in the upper left corner of the windshield, just like that. Only problem is the mirror hits it. I am planning on moving it to right on top of the rearview mirror soon.

 

ive decided im gona go with a scan gauge II, since my birthday is in a couple days i just asked my parents for it

 

Scan gauge ftw

I love it, and it works on almost all of my odbII vehicles.
