Some Ford vehicles your privi to that info, if you use a fairly good scanner, like a Solus or whatnot. That's what they use here anyway, - to figure things out. Yea this generation trucks can have their history read..to bad they don't read the future ehh.

There's a couple phone apps that give you live data. Mode 6 from the phone can and has worked in the past, but not for everyone. You have to download the correct PID's. Those apps are cheap, - Torque and Torque Pro.

LoL, I sold it Oct 2010. Well many reason that just made a lot of since at the time.
It was a weekend toy, had a 07 Ranger as a DD. In 2 years I only put 6-7K miles on it. So instead of just letting it sit I put it up for sale. Took almost a year to sell. What made me do it is that since it was paid for anything I got from it would be all mine. Ended up selling it, paid the ranger off, wife's car off, honeymoon and put 4-5K in the bank.
Do I regret selling it? Not really. Do i wish I still had it, yes. My favorite mod on the truck was the stereo system. One off, one of a kind that has been copied but never duplicated. And knowin if I ever build another I couldn't do the same setup as the shop is now closed. I drove the truck to Houston to the shop, flew home(New Orleans) and a friend in Houston was coming in town 1.5-2 weeks later drove it back for me.
A retired military surgeon assistant bought it in Jacksonville, FL he owned it for 2-3years and a few months back sold it to somebody else in Jax.
