I have it and it's definitely worth it. It comes in 3 parts, electrical, frame/body, and then the actual service manual with specs and instructions on how to replace components. It's not the easiest to use and it takes some time to figure out what is where in the manual, but for the mechanical stuff it's all there. The electrical section is not complete wiring diagrams but more of a basic outline of wiring harnesses and which sensor and plug is where.

beware, after you buy the manual it takes them a few days to email the files to you which you can then save on your computer.

Thanks for the question and comments! Seems like a fair price if it's truly comprehensive. Does it, for example, have clear information on performing routine maintenance items that aren't in the owner's manuals? I'm thinking of the things like "lubricate clutch fork" which you're supposed to do immediately after every time the truck goes for a little swim, and changing the trans/gearbox/differential oils.
