I ended up getting a labor time guide in book form from Motor until I found Mitchell on demand at the library in Clearfield
Now I use just Alldata as their database is the factory manuals for all makes
I am sure that costs AllData a ton of money
The Mercedes and BMW manuals from AllData are verbatim Mercedes and BMW pages as well
Yep! Back in the good old days it was library (online account). It was called something else along with library, can't remember the other half on the name. Lot of info on there but not labor times or warranty covered hours from Ford or other.. not ime anyway. Those came from ALLData , yes 30 bucks a month is what I paid to get started as well.. for one vehicle. Then 10 bucks more for each additional vehicle which could be canceled at any time. That brought it back down to 30. Pricing made it a great resource for one person... and value that had just about everything.

That kind of pricing is dust in the wind now unfortunately.

I prob try to link up with the Library again if I needed that info again...white. Wish I could think of the entire library name. It may be what manic mentioned above, just not ringing a bell.

Took the truck on its first road trip yesterday. Went to my grandparents. 21.5 mpg and the blue cruise hands free driving is awesome. That's a must have for road trips
