Dear Rose,

Even those mechanics who work on Vanagon Syncros every week repeat this sort of nonsense -- mostly to scare away any business that "cuts into their profit margins".

I have come to the conclusion that there are two kinds of mechanics out there: those that don't mind working hard (i.e. they love to solve puzzles), and those that are looking for "easy money". For the latter type of mechanic, I wouldn't take ANY car to them!!!!

Cheers,

MJS
