yep, the helms manual is the 'best' i've found. Very big, expensive, but still is lacking details in the areas i've needed it for.

Volume 1 [sk32007sm-1] Volume 2 [sk32007sm-2] I bought last Christmas. I paid 169.00 for them delivered. It covers about everything from Body,mechanical and more. I've been an Auto tech for over 34 years and these books aren't to bad. For me worth the money. ED

Helm publishes the manual for GM. It's pretty much as complete as it gets. There are some omissions gear ratios etc that are missing in the original version. I don't know if this has been corrected in the 08 manual.

thanks guys! most likely i'll be doing my own maintenance, so having the service manuals is a must.

Go to your dealer to get the service manual, if the parts guy is a nice guy he'll give them to you at a lower price. I paid $105 + tax for my set.

I also see the Helm's manuals on eBay every so often - & they usually go for under $100.
I put them on my watch list just to see what they end up going for & saw one set go for under $60.
