Which is best? Bentley, Haynes, Chilton, or another 200

I hate Chiltons. The index is very poor and looking for information is not intuitive at all. Diagrams and photos are sparse as compared to Haynes. This is true of every Chilton's manual I've ever seen (> 10). Kragen and sometimes Borders Books have Haynes Manuals

Haynes is much better. It has more photos and diagrams than Chiltons. The index is extensive and it's easy to find information. The directions are fairly clear, though sometimes they seem to cut corners and presume that the readers have more experience than they may actually have. Pep Boys has Haynes Manuals.
