Chilton Manuals?

I've been phoning around, looking for a Chilton Manual on the '09 Mustang. Can't seem to find one.

Anybody know how old a car has to be before they print one? Maybe my car is too new?

My response will be hopefully less useless...

I've been looking for 2003 ES300 manuals, and finding nothing yet. I did find a place that will sell factory service manuals, but they're in the couple hundred dollar range.

Thanks...maybe this a thing of the past? I'll keep looking. I've got time...warranty & roadside service still part of the package.

Have you tried to get the Ford shop manual set? It might be a better deal: content/dollar.

Thanks Jim, I'll ask about that next time I'm in the dealership...

Damn...amazon no longer accepts checks...credit cards only, I refuse to post a card number on the net.

You can subscribe to http://www.alldatadiy.com and they will have the factory manual as well as the TSB and other info. Really a good price too.
