There is nothing wrong with giving a shop some credit, but don't sound like some looser on an infomercial pushing the latest blender
Just saying people get a little wild about pumping a shops work...
Not saying doing it is a bad thing...

what's sad is there are shops that act all friendly, build a "relationship" with a customer and then **** them harder than tommy lee did pamela anderson. i love it when those guys that think they have a great deal going with their shop and then they call or post up saying "xxx fucked me over"

LOL, exactly. When I see someone post that up, I think to myself, I'm not going there. This guy wouldn't know how to put a spark plug in, much less know a good shop from a bad one.

Maybe having to pay someone $80/hr to bolt a damn part onto your own car makes you delusional.
