[urq] NAC - OBD scanner/readers

[Mark R]

OBD-3 isn't a *real* spec.  Last I knew, it was in the "talking" stage and
was essentially OBD-2, with the addition of a transponder for wireless
hookup (or compliance monitoring).

As for OBD-2, you're limited for generic scanning.  If you want enhanced
capabilities, the OTC Genesis is a worthwhile product ($1500.00 or less).
Otherwise, you're looking at a generic scan tool.  For $300.00 or so, you
can get *some* enhanced GM/Ford data.   For VAG products, VAG-COM.

Good luck,
Mark Rosenkrantz
