    I have an awful scan tool - must have cost me all of $30 back in the day. it's time for me to upgrade.

    I just purchased and am waiting for a 2024 White Gen 5 Prius LE - so I need a scan tool should work on both my gen 5 and my Gen 3 - 2013 V model.

    Of course it needs to be able to properly bleed the brakes on the 2013 and hopefully work as well for the needs of the 2024. Not expecting to be working on the 2024 for years to come :)

    Autel Scanner MaxiCOM MK808S keeps coming up and I cannot afford Snap On.

    Question is am i wasting my money on this $500 model? Is this a good scan tool?

    Any other suggestions on the best tool for keeping my 2 Priuses on the road?
    Thanks
