Default Chilton's or Haynes

I am going to get a basic repair manual, either Chilton's or Haynes for now. And then eventually get factory manual as well.

Anybody have the Chilton's or Haynes manual for the 2005 thru 2007 Mustang, and which is better ?

I have always preferred the Chilton's over the Haynes series, but I didn't know they had a Chilton's for the s197 yet. The Haynes is worth getting, but it is spotty in its coverage. The Haynes plus the factory manual is a pretty good combination.

I just ordered the Haynes manual this morning from Amazon. They have the Chiltons manual listed as well, but it looks like it's not shipping until Jan of 08. I'll pick it up then as well.
