I was looking at Haynes Manuals FAQ section, and found that they don't write manuals for cars that are less than 2 years old and for vehicles that aren't popular. From the previous gen, how long did it take for Haynes to release a manual for the 3rd gen escape? Also, is there a way to get a service manual with torque specs without breaking the bank? I know asking on the forum is an option, but a service manual might just be more convenient and a little more reliable.

I had a look at the listing, and checked the reviews. It seems sketchy, with non descriptive feedback, and repetitive messages. Do you have experience with this particular manual?

Your best bet is to go online to the Ford site and pay for a 72 hour access to get the real thing. Sorry I cannot remember the exact address. You can and/or print sections that you want.

Actually I have a copy and I also have access to the Ford dealer manual.
It's not a bad manual for a normal user, lacks the FDRS troubleshooting steps for the logic, but then again most people don't have the hardware and subscription for that.

I've used this vendor before and the manuals were complete aside from wiring diagrams. I contacted him about this specific manual to see if it covered the PHEV and he said it did not, FWIW.
