Default Mojio OBD Add-On

Ever hear of the Mojio?

We didn't either... Interesting add on that we will be running tests on over the next few months and reporting our findings. OBD add-on's seem to be a big thing that is up and coming. The Camaro will be sporting it this Summer to see if it's something useful, fun or just kind of a dud.

Here are the basics so far:

Sounds like a type of "black box" for cars.

Just another way for "Big Brother" to be watching. I disconnected my onstar but the "Sheeple" will probably love it.

Totally agree with both of you.

It sort of freaks me out when I look back at a trip report and everything from speed to location is logged.

The part I'm curious about is if the app support will come or people will actually buy these things. My onstar is disconnected as well. I really liked the idea of the thing being plugged in if I ever take it for service or valet the car. Doesn't happen much, but you always wonder when somebody else drives your car.
