heheh, well that's kinda right, however most of the mechanic's i know that just hate certain
vehicles will play the "tricking & no answering" game. Which entitles them the right to diagnose a
problem, however if it's an import that absolutely hate to work on, they'll give people the good
old "those parts are special order..." or try to work people into believing it's about 30hr of
book time work and although they'll help cut off the price, they'll need to leave the vehicle
there for a week... stupid crap like that.
Ron, i'm not disagreeing with ya buddy. I don't want someone to work on my car anymore then they
want to. I usually do my own work, but I definitely don't mind an honest tech. However, finding an
honest tech nowadays is hard enough let alone finding a tech who is as knowledgable as he/she is a
honest!! I usually don't read up on he process of doing a particular job on a car at work. I
normally figure it out. That's not to say I wouldn't mind having some literature to read regarding
a task, especially electronics. Maybe i expect too much of tech's nowadays....
