If I were to buy a Verus, can anyone tell me what Snap-on would charge to keep the scan tool updated.

The best bet is to speak to your rep. If yous buy off the truck they may be willing to give you lot an update. If you purchase somewhere else they may be less willing.
The cost tin can depend on many factors including how far backside the tool is.
I've heard they make you pay for every update that has been missed, but I've never actually paid for an update. I unremarkably manage to get my rep to include one equally incentive for me to spend money on the truck. Otherwise I buy very trivial.
There is too a subscription service that spreads out the payments for one year and gives you each of the quarterly updates for that yr.
Another thing to consider is the age of the tool.
A start generation Verus may non be supported any longer, meaning no update available.
My current tool is a Verus Edge (one notch below the Zeus) and I call back i update is around $m.

Just smart enough to know I'g stupid.

I discover you can generally expect to spend $1000-1200, like Noah said.

The subscription service is definitely an pick. Just beware that it adds upward to about the same corporeality over the course of the subscription (generally a yr).

I dunno about the Verus, but I know that my Modis Ultra can install the biannual updates via ShopStream Connect, without having to visit the Snap-On dealer. Saves a chip of time/hassle.

You can all the same use the Verus without current software. Depending on its electric current level, it volition likely handle everything you demand to work on and yous'll take a telescopic.

Practice you know what software version is in it now?
I call up the biggest improvements (well, the most relevant to the cars I work on) were made in version16.

I was quoted $1800 for my Verus Edge (with current software) and ended up getting it for $1500 since I did the leg work and sold my old Solus...

Merely smart enough to know I'm stupid.

Maintaining the updated software really isn't of disquisitional importance. It'due south not like the scanner is going to turn into a pumpkin when the subscription expires.

Especially if you lot've got a scattering of cars yous see ofttimes, as long as the tool you cull has adequate coverage for those cars it should always be usable for yous.

Only smart enough to know I'k stupid.
