1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, at a first device, multiple vehicle data messages, wherein each of the multiple vehicle data messages includes a data identifier and data value transmitted from a vehicle, and wherein the first device is not a component of the vehicle;

    detecting, by a processor of the first device, a first trigger to switch from a prior vehicle data transmission mode (VDTM) to a first VDTM for transmitting in their entirety over a communication link from the first device to a second device at least some of the multiple vehicle data messages, wherein the second device is not a component of the vehicle;

    determining, by the processor based on (1) the first trigger, and (2) one or more requests the first device transmits to the vehicle to request vehicle data messages or one or more requests the first device receives from the second device to request vehicle data messages, the first VDTM for transmitting in their entirety over the communication link from the first device to the second device at least some of the multiple vehicle data messages;

    switching, in response to detecting the first trigger and determining the first VDTM, the first device from operating in the prior VDTM to the first VDTM, wherein some of the multiple vehicle data messages include vehicle data messages received while the first device is operating in the first VDTM; and

    transmitting the vehicle data messages received while the first device is operating in the first VDTM in their entirety over the communication link from the first device to the second device according to the first VDTM.
