Why don't car companies offer their owner's manuals online?

This seems like such an obvious thing to do. Surely they know that a lot of used cars won't come with a manual and that a manual will increase the owner's satisfaction with their vehicle and the company. So far I know Chrysler and Jeep will only point you to places where you can buy one (from someone else no else) for 20 bucks. Surely it wouldn't be too hard to make a PDF available online.

Have you just tried to Google for it? I find it hard to believe that there aren't electronic owner's manuals these days. . .

Because if they did that, people who buy used cars wouldn't have to buy them from the dealer for $50.
