Autoenginuity What Do I Need

I am thinking of getting the Autoenginuity Program for my 02 7.3 but I am a little confused as to what I need. Can I just purchase the Ford Enhanced Package or is there something else I need to go along with it besides laptop? Who might have the best deal also?

Thanks for the help, I was a little confused over what all I needed. Something that seems to happen a lot lately.

Go to the AE class on this site to learn how to use the program.

Before purchasing determine your needs. In that, the average user does not understand nor have the recourses needed to use a Bi-Directional Scanner.

I have AE. I don't like AE. Too buggy.

Some other options that have hit the market lately is Torque-Pro for Android Systems. Along with a Bluetooth Adaptor allows for total customization of display and the ability to view, record, upload data. I see more and more Technicians using their Phones as "Run-N-Gun Diagnosis".

The things that I think (I don't own the Software, just see it in trade magazines) it doesn't do is Contribution Tests, Buzz Tests Etc. HOPEFULLY, some who know the system will chime in.

Bottom line, there is no use getting more than what you need and no use in getting things you may or may not use.
