Default 2013 F150 5.0 service manual request

Anyone know where to get .pdfs of the dealer service manual? I have a 2013 FX4 5.0.

Thank you

You can buy the Ford service manual in several different formats from the publisher, Helm, Inc. On-line subscription for a few days to a few months access. CD, DVD, and old fashioned paper versions are also usually available.

For your 2013 F-150, right now only the CD ROM version is available at a reasonable price. The DVD is available, but includes all Ford vehicles, so it costs an arm and a leg and your firstborn son. Online subscriptions and the paper manual don't seem to be available yet for the 2013 model.

However, the online subscriptions are available for the 2012 F-150, and there is probably no significant difference in the info for a 2012 vs. 2013. It will cost you only $11 to look at the online version for 3 days, or $20 for a month, so that might be what you need.

I assume the CD you reference is this one here? http://www.helminc.com/helm/product2...313&itemtype=N

I see that a Windows machine is a requirement, and I have a Mac. Do you know if there are .pdfs of the manual on the disc? I really want .pdf format instead of some type of proprietary format so I can put the .pdfs on my iPad for easy reference.

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm spoiled, I got to where if it doesn't work on my iPad, I don't want it!

it is all proprietary for piracy protection. So it looks like windows only, sorry
