Scan Tool recommendations??
My company is expanding rapidly. We are opening a service department that will take care of any vehicle that comes through the door.
We are in Iraq, but we will see lots of Ford, GMC, Toyota, and Kia. I need one GOOD scantool with all the options.
I am looking pretty hard at the OTC Genisys system. Anyone use that one or have any good recommendations?

I used to have a newer SnapOn scan tool, then he shop bought an OTC, same one you're asking about. I've used both and would NO DOUBT go with the OTC.
SnapOn requires more updates that you/shop has to buy, for everything. The Otc does more vehicles, and is WAY more user friendly.

The Snap-on modis and solus are great tools...if you know how to use them, and have the money to update them every 6 months like ubreal2 stated. The Genisys (I believe Mac Tools bought the genisys from otc am i mistaken?) is very user-friendly and would be your best bet imho.
