Other than that your just paying a cheaper price for th9e same shmucks the dealership didn't get a chance to hire. Its a scary outlook in the truck repair landscape. Best thing you can do is know what needs to be done and micromanage the hell out of the job. After all, your paying the bill that makes you the boss. So educate yourself so you can be one of the owners that give a damn and gets your job done right.

Here is my question. Ok I'm 24. I like being the younge guy but then I see some of these older folks who think bc I'm young that i am naive or whatever, sure I dont know everything. That's why I ask alot of questions and sometime I ask it again to make sure I understand. I respect my elders but dont like being taken advantage of. I know a few things about mechanics and what is a legit fix and what is half-arssed. So, I dont like it when I ask shops questions or I say something about the way I want it fixed and they will brush it off by saying it is nothing to worry about or it is just fine and dandy although I still have that odd feeling in my stomach like I'm being screwed over. I'll just have to fix it myself later till I get my warm and fuzzy feeling that it is up to my specs.Or I question about the bill, maybe you can talk them down 10% or 15% and be like, "oh my gosh I didn't know it was going to be this expensive." Because more then likely that is how it is. So what is the way to deal with these people? So I thought of something. I write a Google review about my experience. I keep my review based on my experience, or I make a YouTube video of my experience to tell others how it was.When I ask alot of questions. Maybe some are irritating for others to answer and that is what I can read in people's body language so I stop right their before things get out of hand. Use the internet to spotlight the good or the bad. Unfortunately good news doesnt travel near as fast as bad.
