dsox3000t, my bad. still well over 4k for the base model plus the required options i believe.
i believe that what you want to do at some point is develop and diagnose automotive hardware am i correct?
it's not that the hantek is crap, it is so limited that it is useless for your intended application. sure, almost any scope will be able to look at the analog signals inside a car but more and more sensors are digital and without a handy tool to acquire and decode the data the time you will lose will be far more expensive than the correct tool. and i'm talking about 2015-2016 consumer cars! not racecars or heavy duty veichles
at the very least you will need an obd scanner/eraser, a scope and an obd logger (sure, obd2 also uses canbus as a physical layer but decoding canbus is not the same as decoding obd2).
I must insist and still recommend a picoscope. this is their ebay shop, they usually sell discounted/refurbished/out of production modules. they are still supported 100% by the software, they will probably have very little onboard memory, slower sammplerate etc, check the model numbers.
