With technology advancing so rapidly I'm wondering if anyone has found a OBD scanner that reads everything on our Ram trucks? I just want to buy the best available that does more than just engine codes.

On e you have the MX+ you could buy AlfaOBD also, there is lots of diagnostic/testing abilities along with configuration and setting changes.

^^^This^^^, but to be the best you must buy AlfaOBD or the OBDmx+ is only another generic scanner. AlfaOBD is what makes it the best. It gives you access to all of the modules in our rams and all other Chrysler Dodge vehicles. You can modify settings like change the tire pressure range if you buy better tires. I was able to replace all bulbs from incandescent to LED and set it to read led values to determine bulb out failures. which my dealer claimed they couldn't do. The software is around 50 bucks.
