I have tried download mgrs, they don't work because of the cgi(can't remember for sure). They are not links, it's actually script that pull up your requested page.

TIPS:
The easiest way that I came up to organize this is copy their directory structure. After you display that page you want, save it in the same directory structure as the address bar.

If you subscribe @ 12:01 AM, you will get 47hr 59min.

Find a nice comfy chair on a free weekend.

There is an NCF (new car features) that will tell you yr to yr changes for a particular models. It would be nice if we can get a full list of 3GS improvements.

Ok, yeah, a CGI script will make it a little harder. I will see what I can work on. I guess the extremely long download times weeds out a lot of people. I am willing to be that the time it takes to download this is worth about the same as it would to just buy the manual.

just downloaded over 700 pages of stuff.... not even half way there....

its an incredible service for $10 a day - wish i didn't have to download everything... and it was like a $100/year service... $350 is a bit too high i think...

I just bought one of those last week. Piece of JUNK! Everyone dont buy the ebay crap. Granted I only paid $6 ship included. However, I would gladly pay the $10 for this official toyota site.

Also, the cd I got was in PDF format.....but it was just a whole bunch of scanned pages poorly put into pdf format. There's probably about 200-300 pages at MAX. Considering the contents of the cd totaled about 50mb thats about as many low res JPG's you can fit.
