964 version is great; 996 book isn't so good if you're looking for something to assist with maintenance. Compared to the 964 version it had few facts but many opinions like how much the author disliked the electronic hood mechansim!

Hey Steve! Happy Holidays to ya'!
I guess it's a good book from a leisure standpoint, but I was expecting the same sort of thing as the excellent 964 book which I enjoyed reading over and over. It just seemed like the text was constantly stressing how misinformed everyone is which gets tiring to read; it was like reading an opinion article or Internet discussion! Also while the info is available online, I was surprised common maintenance wasn't covered.
