You would accomplish more by having the pinheads that set requirements and design budgets do that.

Given time and money, most designers would rather do what is right for the end user.

Still, the really arcane stuff often comes in handy when you need to do some troubleshooting.


I've seen a CD manual on Ebay for that price range, and focusing, the seller says, specifically on the 2002-2004 Park Avenues. It's from a seller in Minnesota. He says you can search by part number, etc. Do these manuals on CD work well?
