Ok here's the deal. I have my own laptop and software but I do not have this tool I need because it is stupid expensive and I rarely access my parameters. Is there somewhere I can just rent this #### thing? Overpriced as hell and I'm not a mechanic therefore I don't need this tool but maybe once a year. Any suggestions? Maybe somebody can just let me park and use theirs?
Nexiq USB link 2. Where can I get one to use?

The laptop and software is the expensive part. Bite the bullet on new one or shop for used.
Do you need a 2? The older USB link 1 should be had used for cheap and should still work fine on an older truck. -
It doesn't cost a lot.

The cheapest one I have found was on Amazon for $635 but people were saying it was a Chinese knockoff. also I am over the road so I don't have a mailbox to order online anyways I have to buy the part physically from a truck parts store.

Unfortunately you must pay to play. Either pay the shop or buy the tool. I dont see another option.
You are correct on the chinese knockoff. Dont be fooled by the cheap price.
What application are you using that requires a 2?QUALITYTRUCK, pushbroom and spsauerland Thank this. -
Grab the bull by the horns, dont buy some used outdated crap. Buy new, stay cool. Like it or not. Nobody ever got anywhere by cutting corners or being cheap. Ouch !!!
spsauerland Thanks this. -
Don't even know why I'm replying to this thread, must be the polite OP. I use Nexiq 1/2 , Dpa 5, DLA 2.0, Inline 6 on a daily basis. What program are you using that requires Nexiq 2 only? ESA is the only one that I am familiar with that only works with Nexiq 2.
Socal Xpress, spsauerland, pushbroom and 1 other person Thank this. -
ESA is exactly what I'm using
