I'd like to add to this question. Once you get it set up to work, can you move it to similar trucks? For example set up for 05-07 SDs with 6.0s can you unplug and move it to another w/o issue.

It can be moved to numorous vehicals. Not just ford but almost everything with an OBII port. You just have to change some settings on it and codes to read the vehical. Accurracy........ well it's reading what your computer is reading so I guess it's dead on. A/M guages and computer gauges are gonna vary. Which one is right? Who knows? It's a pretty good product though for the price. Don't know how good it is on code reading though.

Its called ****, or **** (google it). Its only $39 and it seems to do it all. I'm ordering one this weekend.....hell, at that price, I may buy two, one for each of my later model vehicles.
