And sarcastically speaking please oh please don't add functionality to the obd connector like the ability to self diagnose and display a full report for any mechanic to easily use without the need for special hardware. That would be awful to have.

I find it insane that with modern computing and displays, they still just render a vague check engine light despite being able to easily display the specifics.

Ding ding! You got a flat tire dude! You can tell because I'm showing you this symbol "!"

Oh, wanna know which one? Just go outside and check it out buddy! It would be the one that looks flat.

You get all this great information for just $400 bucks! 100 per each tire monitor.

Dude, my goodness! Can they do worse?
