    Hi
    Im having some work done on my 2003 Taco. Im looking to buy a shop quality repair manual so i can educate myself on all the nuts and bolts so to speak. Talking to mechanics Id like to be able to understand just what they are talking about or be able to do some repairs myself. I see a number for sale on line but which is best ? PDF or the actual and expensive book ?
    hanks in advance
    Mike Young

    @ OP- if you search for 2003 Tacoma Factory Service Manual (FSM for short) you should be able to find a downloadable PDF for free.
