Autopia Car Care Guide to Detailing
Has anybody downloaded this program from them? It's only $10.00 and you can download it instantly from their site. If it has some really good tips and tricks it would be worth it, but if it's just covering the basics, I feel I already have that knowledge. It can be found at:

I beg to differ...while I am new here, I post there also and have shared a lot of information and gotten a lot of information! It's one website that has a forum that respects other's opinions!
As for getting information elsewhere, you can pay $10 for Autopia's info, or you can spend anywhere from $15to $30 at Barnes and Noble, Amazon .com, etc.
The difference is that at Autopia, like here, you have a group of enthusiasts that are really passionate about their vehicles!

Well, you can differ all you like, Gonzo. That's what a forum is all about. Opinions vary. I'm sure their Forums are as informative about detailing as F150online is to our community and I'm glad you are finding positive use there as well. My point, not incorrect, is that Autopia used to be a free site, full of articles I could read at leisure. Not anymore. This same information is available -- free -- elsewhere, and I would not send any money to Autopia when I can obtain that same info without charge. I never said a word about spending money at Amazon or Barnes/Noble for Yet Another Detailing Guide. Besides, I've learned more from the forum in our own community here than I did at Autopia. Chill, brother.

The reason autopia has to become slightly commercialized is because so many people are starting to use it. His bandwidth charges have gone up greatly and he was losing a lot of money where as before he was just breaking even at the end of each month.
Would you keep a site running if you were losing money on it? I don't think so.
Still, I haven't read the book but I have read the first 8 chapters. It seems to cover a lot of the basic information. If you have no clue about detailing, then get the book. If you already know a little, then you don't need to book. The book covers the absolute basics.

I bought the detailing guide for $10. Some of the stuff I already knew, some I didn't. One reason I didn't have a problem with spending the $$ was that it helps support the site, much like buying stuff from the store here. Besides, you can still get a wealth of info for free, all you have to do is post the question...
