Spray all the nos you want. Sorry not sorry…..
I miss my racing and wrench turning days. I don't miss the low pay the automotive repair industry has sunk to, though. Not worth it anymore in my opinion. And I'll never ever buy a newer car than '00 again. Say it with me, kids - All. New. Cars. Are. JUNK.

Fuel injection is for pussies. you know how easy it is to work on this car? While these youngbucks scatter with their laptops, I adjust the carb, maybe up the timing abit and put my feet up. The car just works.

The low pay thing man, they just did away with state inspections here. The industry is fucked. Don’t even get me started on custom lines and fittings…..it destroys an entire racing season waiting on bullshit now. preach.

Not to get "too political" here but the automotive repair industry has gone to shit and it can almost all boil down to the "Cash for Clunkers" program. It nearly singlehandedly destroyed the industry, taking hundreds of thousands of perfectly good cars off the market forever. Between that and the automotive companies purposefully reverse engineering parts to save money, planned obsolescence, etc. They don't want people to fix their cars anymore. That's the truth of it. They want you to finance a 30,000 dollar pile of crap, drive it for 4 years, then roll your debt over into another 30,000 dollar pile of crap, and making parts and systems that are more expensive to fix than buying a new car, it's all garbage.

Yeah, I could go on and on about this. I went to a top automotive school and paid thousands of dollars for a degree in an industry that collapsed just after I got said degree. I'm just a wee bit salty about it 🤬

You should look up the new diesel transmission that is going in a ton of trucks soon, it’s literally unrepairable, if it breaks, you have to buy a new unit. I shit you not. It was at sema this year. So you are correct sir. It’s only going to get worse…….

That's a beauty! Take a look at the pics in my profile I posted a bunch of pics from the European Performance shop I used to work for. I worked on a couple of cars that were regular winners at Pike's Peak International Hill Climb, as well. It was a great place to work, not a great place to earn money, though. You'd think people with Porsches and BMWs would pay a little more to have their toys fixed. >.>

Them Germans cars are good though, and thanks on the puddle jumper, she a pain in the ass sometimes, but I love her. At least you got to be in the industry before it became second class. It’s rough goings now.

Oh I totally believe ya there. That's like the iDrive system BMW came out with a few years ago. Something like 12 or 13 computer modules and if 1 of them goes out, the entire system has to be replaced to the tune of 15+ grand. Nobody's got money for that shit!

That trans I was talking about? 20,000 g’s a pop bro. It’s criminal.

Yeah I like Audi, VW and Porsche. But, definitely not a fan of BMW (Broke My Wallet). I've seen some of the dumbest engineered shit on BMW than I've ever seen in my life. Stay the hell away from Mini, too. I can't tell you how many Mini engines I've replaced, but more than 10 in a period of 2 years, easily.

They say that BMW is "The Driving Experience" .. and in many ways, it is. They are NOT "The Fixing Experience" though. When BMWs break, they BREAK.

They don't even charge extra for those oil sludge engines! 🤣
 
Didn't use enough rice...
Fucking Hondas. He was talking so much shit in staging bro, I’m the fastest car on the property blah blah blah. I just laughed (I was by no means the fastest car there, fastest Pontiac maybe) he didn’t notice the outlaw 72 nova with the giant N/T on his window, fucking 7 second car on the draggie. Anyways, I taught that idiot a lesson in humility.
