No thanks.. I am lucky to have a garage in town that I trust to do all my stuff. I don't even change my own oil, anymore..
May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?

Wow
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

I always knew this kind of stuff happened.  It's sad to know that they made it a part of their daily routine.  I guess these people don't have a conscience.

I am a Chevrolet dealer and it is a shame people like that are in the auto repair business. One thing they did not mention in the video is that many of "quick lube" facilities use oil and oil filters that are substandard. I noticed in the video that they were advertising $19.95 oil changes. We charge $16.95 for quality oil and a Delco filter and lube. We charge less then Wal-Mart. It pays many times to shop your local dealerships for prices. There is a popular misconception that dealerships are higher on repairs. That is not always the case. If I had a technician that charged a customer for service work not performed or parts not place on a vehicle I would call the Sheriff and have him prosecuted. Nothing worsts then a thief.

I started changing the oil in my Silverado and realized how easy it was when I was in college. Then I bought a Toyota Corolla and took it to Jiffy Lube because I didn't have a jack and couldn't just slide under it like with my truck. They charged me almost $40 for a basic oil change - I was furious! Next time it was due I went out and bought a jack and jackstands and do it myself for under $15. I will never go to those places again.
