What Scaner Do I Need?

I'm looking for a code scanner that will cover the 6.0 Liters and the 2000 and up 7.3 too. Are they all OBD II? Or am I going to have to get two different scanners?
Any input will be helpful....Thanks

a standard OBDII scanner won't work on a 7.3 and probly not on 6.0, in the 7.3 forum most use autoenginuity

Most guys I know have the Auto Enginuity.

Personally, I use a MODIS, but on the other hand, I use it daily as a routine course of business.

Actually, you might want to see if you can pick up a used Snap-On "brick" updated through the model year of your truck..
