Jeff,

Sherbrooke is my hometown, though I now live in Alberta.
In 1997 after traveling for 11 months with my wife and
our 6 year old daughter we were visiting my mom in Sherbrooke.
I get Mobil 1 and drive to the dealer for an oil change.
While I'm waiting for an appointment I notice 2 mechanics
smoking inside the shop while working on vehicles!!!!!!!!!
Got out of there quick. Went to Garage Euro-Technique,
I tell the guy what just happened at the dealer, he
rants about them a bit and tells me he'll take good
care of me. I look at him straight in the eyes and
say "just do the oil change, don't touch ANYTHING else".
Five minutes later he's pumping "no-name non-synthetic
crap" in my tranny, which isn't low by the way, the stuff
is pumping in is overflowing on the ground!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you think he got paid????

rant mode off
