It depends on what type of owner you are. If you are like me, a backyard mechanic who can do easy to moderately difficult jobs, I think the Haynes is better. If you are an experienced mechanic and no job frightens you, the Bentley works great. I have both but I go the Haynes more often. The Haynes is also much cheaper to get (through the Bus Depot). An example is when I recently replaced my water pump. The Bentley said almost nothing with the assumption that an experienced mechanic would know how to do it. The Haynes takes you through it step by step with great pictures. This thread has appeared before so you can check the archives for more info.
