Re: tool sharing program

If I recall right, the 1551 is about USD 4000.00 and the 1552 costs around
USD 2000.00 here (dealer net).  Then you'll need the program cards as new
models are updated.  Not to forget the factory repair manuals.  Oh yeah, the
1551/1552 are being phased out by the new VAS XXXX diagnostic computer,
maybe that one'll be cheaper.  Let me see, I've ordered one....now I
remember...It was around USD 20 000.00  ...

Maybe lending that one out isn't a good idea.

I don't lend out tools or my personal cars.  Period.
