Maximus 2.0

Anyone have one yet? One friend does and he loves it. But i take that with a grain of salt knowing him lol

Don't have one, don't need one but boy would I like one! A quick Google search reveals 4/5 stars out of 72 reviewers so not too shabby.

The Matco scan tool? My old shop tested one, I was not impressed. Slow and clunky. Took forever to do simple things like pull codes.

That was my experience with the last one. But supposedly this one is updated

I have its smaller brother, the maxgo. Great vehicle coverage, but its a little clunky and a little 'Chinese' feeling compared to my snap on scanner and the autel 908. Good scantool for the money, but could use a little streamlining to make it more user friendly in some applications. Graphing on it is also horrendous.

I have the cReader Professional and it works better than the Maximus that my coworker bought.

I have a Maximus 2.0 it's night and day difference compared to Maximus 1.0

It does a lot and well but the communications is slow to start up its better with data

But my solus ultra is better on resets and quick scans

If you do that much Ford you will be way a head by getting a Ford IDS, it is my favorite scan tool

I've looked into this.. i'm guessing the $200 packages don't actually include the software?

The VCM 2,the required interface, costs around 2500.00 for a real one from ford, you need a decent laptop, and the sub is 700 a year, includes programing files and the scan tool.

To buy go to Rotunda tools site, ford's special tool company.
