Anyone else using Torque for Android? It's great for having a bunch of unnecessary information. This is my current setup.

Not bad, would look at lot better at night than mine.

I used to run the widgets only so you can still control the stereo and stuff, but it looks far less technical :)

Looks so cool! Want so much but I don't have a car. Or a license, in fact, hehe.

I'm using an ExoMount Universal smartphone mount to hold my Samsung SGH-I927.

I used to use it daily until I got a car with a stand-alone. No OBD2 means no Torgue :( I used to have a performance page with all the vitals and an everyday page with the map and trip mpg and another for performance testing with the 0-60,1/4, and so on. When my friends got check engine lights and I pulled out that unit and my phone people thought I was a genius/car whisperer...

Whoa, didn't know about the music controls!

I've been using an 'always on top' widget app which is not as clean.

My second screen is 4wd based:

If I had an android tablet and a different car than my Miata I would. There really isn't enough info coming out of the ECU to make it useful. I do enjoy having real time information though. The modern cars that don't come with any gauges I would say this is a necessary investment.

Just get an OBDII adapter and plug it into your dad's car. Then you can sit in the passenger seat and tell him his driving isn't very fuel efficient.

That's a sweet screen and that setup is on my phone. I'll get some screenshots off my tablet.

I'm running this on a phone (albeit a phablet).

Torque is quite tricky, it mixes the ECU data with sensors in the phone and GPS. Even if you don't have an OBDII adaptor it's still quite fun.

I just got mine and I love it, still learning what all the gauges mean.
