Anybody have an OBD2 Scan Tool that you prefer for home use with Fords? Besides our '02 Sport Trac, we have a 2016 Edge Sport and a 2023 Bronco Sport.
 
This 2001 SportTracJob2, like most 1997+Later Autos, has an OnBoardDiagnosis2\OBD2 Port under the Dash.
For many years I kept a basic OBD2 Scanner that would read & reset only the StandardSAE TroubleCodes;
I now also have the items below, which allow extensive access to TroubleCodes, Signals & Configurations:

OBDLink#MX+ Module with WirelessBT to AndroidPhon with OBDLinkApp + ForScanLite + TorquePro
* Reads+Resets+Graphs both StandardSAE & ProprietaryOEM Data
* DashBoardMode for viewing Temps & Signals while Driving
* Used for Routine Maintenance & DailyMonitoring

OBDLink#EX Module with CabledUSB to WindowsPC with OBDLinkWiz + ForScanLLE
* Reads+Resets+Graphs+Configures both StandardSAE & ProprietaryOEM Data
* Faster & easier than ToggleSwitch ELM327 ComsModules
* Used for InDepth Maintenance & Configurations

Above ODB2 items are personal preference; there are many options which vary widely in cost & function.
An Ohm+Volt+Amp\MultiMeter is also handy+essential; using the same digital Fluke meter 30years+ now.

I have Blue Driver and I like it. If I buy another one it will have the option to bleed the ABS brake module.
