What is the difference between this version and the older one?

We don't know anything about the older one, but this one is great. We love playing it and our 8 year old granddaughter likes to play it with us also.

I have no idea. It cost less when I bought it. I don't know anything about the newer model.

I do not have both. I do have the one which I think is the new one. It is easy to install and works very well.

You should ask the seller for the newer version ( the one with the brown backing ) before ordering.

Use the latest version from their website. The one I bought is very old version, 1.2.

I have the original version and cannot discern any difference between it and the new one I just received. Was hoping for some difference, otherwise I woldn't have purchased it for $19. . .

there is no difference on versions. whatever you get you will use only the S/N. you have to download the current version (year) of the version you purchase. After that only thing to do is to activate. Enjoy it

I believe that it is version 2.0. I am not certain at this point, I purchased it almost a year ago. I just moved and have not set up the computer that I was using it with.

The only difference is like you said. It's newer. They all provide the amount of online time as displayed. You should have no problems what so ever.

There prob won't be new updates but I have not experienced any inconvenience with my version, which is the newer one, forgot which I think 10.10?

The main difference, in my opinion, between the old version and the new version is the release mechanism which controls the rotation of the TwiStep from the stowed to the deployed position. The release mechanism on the older version was at the top of the pivot point (which helped keep road dust off of the rotation plate) and was a very quick 3-step process; 1) press side latch in 2) push down on the post 3) Turn TwiStep to deploy at either the 90 or 180 degree position. The release mechanism on the new version is at the bottom of the pivot point on the deck of the TwiStep (which collects a lot of dust) and is 2-steps; 1) pull up on latch - which occasionally gets stuck, 2) rotate TwiStep to the 180 degree position. In addition, the fit into the hitch receiver was much better (didn't "wobble") in the old version and it came with a lock. The new version has a tendency to wobble and requires you to purchase the lock separately if you want it locked. Although the control mechanism is on the deck and prone to getting covered with dust/dirt and wobbles a little it is still secure and highly functional. In comparison to other step devises, this is by far, the best and most convenient one and does not require removal to stow when not in use.

I would like to know the answer to this also. I know it's a product update but I would like to know exactly what is the difference.

it was the new version when I received it. I also wanted the old one. The picture is not accurate.

I so not know if there is a different, newer version. I bought this as a gift for my mom. She loves it! Sorry I can't be of more help.

I would get the latest version that you can get. It probably not wort the hassle for the few dollars difference between the ʻOld Version" and newer versions. Any way, itʻs an excellent product and has saved my sanity several times and actually saved me money on repairs, without any hassles.

I think the difference is that the new model probably has better internal components. Improvements to models are usually never stated, only new features if any.
