Code Reader/Scanner

Hey,

I wanted to get a code reader for my 14' SR5 and wanted to get the opinion of what people are using. There are 2 that I am interested in and a considerable price difference. My question is the price difference worth it?

I am only interested in getting some more information from the battery charge, trans temp, tire pressure, update the tire size..ie.

I guess the main difference between the 2 are on is wired and the other is blue tooth. I have the 2 I am interested in linked below. If you have recommendations I am all ears!

I have an OBDLink MX+ and like it a lot. It's very capable. I've used it on my '13 VW, an '07 suburban and mostly on my '15 Ram. The expandable features for reading more data on different vehicles is very handy. The reason I use mine on the Ram so much is to provide a data path to run AlphaOBD which is a program that I believe is similar to Techstream but for Chrysler products. I've enabled/disabled many features on my truck that would otherwise have to be done by the dealership.
