    I'm buying a service manual tonight for my 06 tacoma. I"m noticing that Chilton has a 2005-2009 manual and a 2005-2015 manual. What is the difference? What one should I get? Is the 2005-2015 just more up to date or modified?

    You should get the volume that is applicable to your year Tacoma. They do make minor changes to the truck in the course of a generation such as wire colors etc...

    I bought both Chiltons and they're identical, word for word - including some inaccurate info. The older version has better pictures - I'm pretty sure they photocopied the pics in the old manual for the new one. It's comically sad.

    Mitchells PRO version may be good.

    Their DIY as well as ALLDATADIY are close to useless.
