I go to the shop to do work I can't do or don't have the time to do. If people find it worth the risk to lose out on warranties to have shadetree mechanics do it for pennies on the dollar, I see no issue. Although I think it's rather pathetic if you can't do your own brakes.
>$120 to do the rear rotors and pads for that guy's durango
>it's $110 at the cheapest for a single rotor
Hmmmm

>alternative car repairs
love how they discredit independents like that
if car's fixed, car's fixed, dealership, shop or random mexican with a ratchet and a 10 mil

Brakes and rotors are obviously going to be more expensive on a large truck or SUV the problem here is people driving vehicles they can't afford

>the average age of a car on the road is 12 years old.

You are all pedophiles. I let my vehicles mature to the age of consent.

It's mainly because these Yuppies or new-money type of folk buy expensive newer cars they cannot afford. It wasn't like in the past where cars were easier to repair and maintain- so mechanic fees weren't too crazy. Now you've got incredibly complicated and expensive machines like those weird crossovers that no one can afford to fix.
>Has anyone on /o/ went there?
only time I did was when I needed a simple body work job for a car I was trying to sell. I went to a shady (unlicensed) auto body shop in some near-remote area. They were able to remove the body damage and repaint the car for pocket change and I was happy about it.

This is why BEVs are superior. They need less maintanence and last way longer. And we're just getting started with BEVs, back in 70s and 80s gas cars, despite being the main form of car for 60+ years, only had 5 digit odometers because they would be scrapped for a new one before they reached 100,000. Now we're seeing Teslas go over half a million miles from cars that were made when the brand was less than 10 years old.

Anti-BEV people just want you to be a slave to the mechanic jew. Not to mention the literal jew (Israel).

I think they mean labor and not parts.

I appreciate this post even if nobody else has

>>29145609
I don’t live in Texas but even if I did I wouldn’t go to them for repairs, I do my own car maintenance and unless I can’t do it due to needing a specialty tool I’ll just go to a local mechanic shop that I trust.
