Ok, my new purchase may have fallen through, so I found a used one for sale without any VIN licenses. Is there anything I will need besides buying the VIN license? I just don't want to spend a bunch of money and then realize I screwed up.

If it has the cummins tuning you will only need vin licenses
If it has the gm tuning software then you will need to purchase the cummins upgrade for your v2(which will include two vin licenses)

Also is it a blue or black V2? If it's a black one it will not be able to do the 03-05 trucks when they become available as they don't have teh internal hardware to flash them. Only the blue V2's will have that ability.

That's good to know. The used one I am looking at I think is blue, but they are double checking. If you buy a new one, how do you know what color you will be getting? Are the new ones all black now? Looking at online sellers, most of them appear to be black.

All of the new V2 will be blue.
A black V2 would be fine as long as you plan on tuning only 06 and up cummins.

Thanks. If they don't already have a cummins tune license for the used one, I may push harder on my new purchase.

No problem. I know most of the tuners including myself offer a free tune to help get you going when buy a new V2
