At least, ONLY having an on screen manual stinks.

Particularly when you're working on the vehicle and have it all taken apart and the battery disconnected and you want to use one of the aux switches and wires and you can't turn on the vehicle to get to the manual. And you have no wifi or cell coverage.

Yeah. Making sure to have a pdf copy on my phone now.

I had to print the fuse layout and details, keeping this in the glovebox so I don't have to count on any electronics just to check a fuse.

You can also purchase a printed hard copy from Helm for $35 plus shipping and tax and keep it in your glove box.

Here is the link to the 21MY version…

But yet I get gruff about being old fashioned. Sometimes the old ways are better.

I got one. So much better. But i had to get a bmw leather carmanual case for the glovebox. The Toyota cases are nice too. Ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/174181663640

If you want a Ford case, the nicest they have are for the ford gt

I do use my manuals, and i find using a case is the only way to keep them in good shape
