[QUOTE="Mort, post: 202604, member: 361"] I do as much as I can, the dealership/garage is a LAST resort thing if it out of my hands. Its getting to the point where the newer vehicles are made for the dealers only to repair in some cases. Always need a special freaking tool to get something off, stupid. No wonder mechanics are in demand because you have to buy more tools worth more than you make! ( in other words, you'll be broke because of the massive tool debt and not make a dime) I know because I used to work at a dealership as a lube tech and have a few buddies that were mechanics that are no longer mechanics. Working on vehicles/race cars just came second nature to me, grew up around it, but never wanted to do it for a living. [/QUOTE]
