Code Readers
I know this is a old topic but I wish to enrich the economy with the purchase of a code reader. My truck is, of course, an OBD-1 for utility I want one that will do OBD-II as well. I am looking at this one.... http://www.toolsource.com/canobd21-s...-p-101160.html
Is this a good one, or can any of you suggest one that will go a better job for about the same price, I don't want to enrich the economy too much
Oh one more thing what is this I am reading in some of the descriptons of these readers: "This reader will not activate the Airbags, fire injectors, change transmission shift points, " etc. Is this something to worry about with code readers?

I'm curious...if you're going to spend that much, why not just spend a little more for the xcal2 or 3? They read the codes don't they?

and these flash devices are for OBD-II.
