It would really be cool to be able to monitor all the systems. Would sure give
you ease of mind. Wouldn't be worrying all the time about  something silent and
unseen sneaking up and zapping your van in some aspect. The more information you
can collect the better prepared to make decisions about your vehicle....like fix
it now, not next week lest you be caught in snoqualimie(sp) pass in the biggest
blizzard of the century....that sort of decision..

BTW, one TIT or two TITs are fun, but four TIT's can at times be a challenge!!!
Can keep a fellow busy.
