Lol andy Dodge Dakota 4/12/2003 14:05:17 RE: Haynes or Chilton's manuals? IP: Message: I have used both and i think it breaks down like this. The Haynes has less info but more pictures. Pictures are good for people who have never done the work before.
The Chilton has less pictures but more complete instructions. So long story short if you never do more than change oil get the Haynes if ya really like to work on your truck find a Chiltons P 1 Post a reply to this message: Username Registration: All visitors are allowed to post messages Name: Email: Notify me when I get a reply to my message: Yes No Icons: Subject: Message.
