    What kind of scanner would you recommend for my car and how much can I expect to save with it in gasoline? I currently get about 60 MPG if I drive long distance (highway). What gauges would I benefit from and what would they show?

    Note that I already have a laptop that can connect via OBD-II and read/clear codes as well as read some vehicle parameters, like fuel trim, throttle position, MAF sensor, MAP sensor, etc, so this would not be very beneficial for me.

    I think you'll get more answers out of the "Fuel Economy" forum, but 60 mpg sounds hard to beat!!!
