Yeah, I know it's not a Tech-II, but it seems to do almost everything that a Tech-II can do. And right now it's on sale for REALLY cheap, especially considering it's a bi-directional scanner. Looks like the only drawback is that it only works on GM vehicles, but so does a Tech-II. Not too worried about that part either, since I only own GM vehicles. (Right now at least....)

Looks impressive, did you read through the reviews?

^^^x2^^^ As @swathdiver recommends, check the reviews and see what users have to say.

The Tech 2 allows you to directly interact with the various control systems in the truck and run test operations. IMO, the ability to run test operations is one of the most important and useful functions of a quality bi-directional scanner.
