    Lol, I guess you have no concept of what lot techs do to vehicles after hours??

    The sales guys were much worse in my experience.

    Bummer! I've wondered how hard the claim would be if the mechanic wrecked my vehicle while test driving it after work. I'm assuming most big shops (Firestone, the FORD Dealer, etc) have plenty of insurance to manage the situation.
    Never complain; never explain.

    Yep, they have your insurance, because that's where the claim would go.

    I'm always wondering how many miles they've shaved off of the maintenance life even when they "look" OK. When you're making the payments, you won't be popping a clutch and doing burnouts. But your mechanic's 19yo "helper" has no qualms about that...

    Good example why "shared rides" are also not a good concept, esp for any kind of performance vehicle. Imagine buying a used corvette from a rental pool. FULL NOPE.

    Do folks remember what happened to the Maserati salesman down here in Highlands Ranch?
