Considering that most of the car now adays (years 1990+) have alot of little things that can go wrong and have some sort of onboard brains. Not many can work on their cars like they use to. If your car breaks down you either have to take it to a shop and pay high $ to have a mechanic tell you what is wrong with the car. Or spend alot of time and $ replacing everything just in the hopes of figuring out what is wrong. With this scanner my husband can plug in to the onboard brain of a vehicle with a onboard brain and have the vehicle tell him where it hurts...just like a mechanic. Now if it is something that can be easily fixed at home we can just get the parts and save the extra $ on labor. Otherwise if it would be better to have a mechanic fix we can take in the car and tell the mechanic what to work on...saving the extra $ and time on them hooking up to onboard brain to diagnose the problem. It is the greatest purchase I have ever made.

4.0 out of 5 stars Super, thorough diagnostics tool, April 3, 2009

Yes, you need the software to stream data to your computer, but it's well worth it. Buy others ($$$$$$) and see what you think. This real-time machine is superb. Data input all depends on your car's computer and what data it supplies. Seems like the most data is provided by the Corvette's computer. Hondas, for instance, provide minimal information.
