"...useful overall, but lacking in some regards."The manual can also become frustrating when you cannot find a certain repair or other task you'd like to read about. For example, nowhere in this manual can I find information about the reverse light that is located in the center of the rear lights cluster on my Dodge Intrepid. Another instance of frustration occurred for me when I was reading about the wheel and tire sizes for my vehicle. The manual briefly discusses tire size, quote "All vehicles covered by this manual are equipped with metric-sized fiberglass or steel belted radial tires (see illustration)". Upon examining the illustration, where it gives a tire size of P185/80R13, confusion is easily encountered. After talking with other Intrepid owners, and e-mailing Haynes Publishing Group, I was able to determine that the illustrated tire size was just an example and was not intended to indicate the actual tire size of the vehicles covered in the manual. In case you're wondering, the actual stock tire size for the Dodge Intrepid is either P225/60R16 or P205/70R15, depending on the trim (base or ES). The manual doesn't say this though, and I have yet to see where it discusses wheel (rim) size at all.
So if you're planning to buy this manual, I hope I have given you a little insight on how it reads. In my opinion it was worth the money I spent on it, even if I found it a little lacking for someone of my skill level. More pictures and better detail, and maybe some color, would have made this a five star manual for me. As it is, I can give it a solid 3.5.

Good Labs, but Expensive EquipmentIt is clear, easy to follow, and is not a "cookbook". It requires the student to think about what data will be collected and how to record it, and then guides the student in interpretation of the labs.
The bad part is the expense. The later half of this book requires some very expensive equipment. My school cannot afford this equipment. I am in favor of doing labs, even with quantum mechanics and the more advanced topics, but I think that sometimes the authors of these books need to look at reality.
A few wealthy city schools may be able to afford this equipment, but that is all. Rural or less wealthy schools, like mine, will never be able to afford this equipment. I can write my own labs for those sections using "cheaper" equipment, but I also have a Physics degree. Those who lack my training or experience will be more likely to pick a different text.
