Read that the Preditor's diagnostic capabilities comes pretty close to the Tech2.

I have a Tech 2 that I was given free. It needs to upgraded to more current years and that alone could cost as much as $600. Fortunately, the programming on our cars really doesn't change much year to year, so it works on my '03 even though the most current year it's programmed to is 1999. It also works on my 2000 S-10. They run now about $3000. A friend works for a foreign dealer that gave up their GM franchise.
