Thank you for the link!
How did you decide on this one vs. the other varieties offered on eBay? Assuming at this price point and “courtesy of Ford” in the screenshot means this is not from Ford, but compiled from the OEM service manual?
Have you had a chance to cross-check the pin outs for accuracy? I’m about to pull the trigger but wanted to be sure the schematics were accurate before making any mods.
Fortunately this accurately reflects the change in 2020MY by cutting off at 2019.

Ordered mine last week for 2017-2019, received today and all is good, looks to be complete. Was happy to see that I was able to copy to a flash drive so I can use it on my laptop that lacks a cd drive.

Good deal! It's amazing how many pages of information it contains.

My 2020 service manual finally came. Postal service is terribly slow. Links do not appear to work, however the info seems to be complete. 11506 pages in the service manual and 3237 pages in the wiring diagrams, plus 1001 page diesel diagnosis manual and 1406 page gasoline diagnosis manual. The info is just in PDF files so is platform independent which is great. I was nervous the data would be in a Windows application or something.
I think it's worth the money.

Thanks to all who previously posted about the 2020 SD shop manual. Since there were no more Ebay listings, I was able to find one by tracing back on one of the prior posted links to find the seller. Via Ebay I sent the seller a message asking if he had more. The seller replied he did have more and I was able to order the "Ford F250 F350 F450 F550 2020 Factory Workshop Service Repair Manual on CD". This tactic might work for anyone else wanting this item. I have always gotten a set of service manuals with every new car, usually threw it in at the last minute as a final negotiation ploy. The last two car deals they absolutely refused saying the parts department was like a second independent store and the cost of the set was over $500. I just bought a 2020 F350 SD Fx4 Platinum and the thought of how complicated all the different system are makes it nearly impossible to work on without a good service manual. Again, thanks to everyone here.

Been meaning to purchase one for a while. Just pulled the trigger for a 2020 disk. The seller sent me the item number for the 2020 since i couldnt' find it.
enter item number in Ebay search bar. 303678551439
40.00 shipped + tax = 43.35

I bought the disk for the 2017-2019 F450/F550 Service Manual; not impressed. It was over 6000 pages (description said 12000+ pages); hyperlinks do not seem to work. I see very little on the 6.7. I tried searching the PDF for a couple of things (turbocharger R&R, transfer case R&R, etc) as a test and found nothing. They returned my money without a problem.

and made copies and is selling them.

Boy that site is expensive. Cheaper from the OEM source.

I paid $800 for some Deere manuals a few years ago but had two tractors that I could use them on. I figured after about 2 or 3 repairs I had already paid for them.

I'd be fine with that, I just don't know how to do it. The Honda Pioneer forum I'm on had it set up this way but I still bought a hard copy of the manual to have on hand.
