Magazine: Laines Commercial Auto Manual is a car repair manual for work vehicles. Its in-game description calls it an instructive manual with diagrams and common maintenance tasks for popular commercial pick-ups and work vans.
Reading it teaches Intermediate Mechanics. The game describes this as knowledge of commercial vehicle models and their repairs. It lets a survivor carry out maintenance tasks on pick-ups and vans. It belongs to the Mechanics skill and is the second of three Laines manuals.
The manual is found in loot, mostly in car dealership offices, book stores and car supply stores. Reading it also eases boredom and stress.
Uses
Reading the manual teaches Intermediate Mechanics at once. With it known, commercial pick-ups and work vans can be maintained and repaired.
The same knowledge comes without the manual at Mechanics level 9. The Inventive trait lowers that by one level. The Mechanic occupation and the Vehicle Knowledge trait start with it known.
The three Laines manuals cover three classes of vehicle. Magazine: Laines Standard Auto Manual covers budget and family cars. This one covers pick-ups and work vans. Magazine: Laines Performance Auto Manual covers performance cars.
Like every magazine, it also counts as paper for armour. Make Magazine Body Armor takes eight magazines and four Duct Tape at Tailoring level 1. Make Magazine Limb Armor takes one magazine and two Duct Tape.

- Mechanics level 9 teaches the same knowledge without the manual.
- Mechanic and Vehicle Knowledge characters already know it.
- A car dealership office is the surest place to find one.
