if it's the Alldata or the same thing under the Popular Mechanics
label, it's crap. :(
waste of $20 in the local generic auto stores.
it's just a cd full of bad xerox copies of the pages from the bentley
book!!!
oh, but with an index.

and the Alldata one, you pay for ONLY ONE YEAR model. it's all out
there, but you can't get to the other years without paying an
additional $10/year.

you're better off buying the bentley paper book ... it's easier to use
in the bus where/when you need it.

imho
