ASE certified master tech going on over 40 years as a tech.
All of the years working on Euro cars, mainly BMW, Benz and Jags.
Not a fan of the newer computers with steering wheels in them.
Wife and I own 5 vehicles, the newest is her 2006 Mustang.
So much of this high tech crap in cars these days costs an arm and a leg to repair and everything has to be programmed as new modules are blank from the factory.
Hell, you can't even replace brakes on the newer stuff without a scan tool to deactivate the brake system.
Dealerships here charging in excess of $180 an hour for labor and the top techs are making $35.00 of that.
Hard, often times dirty back breaking work, but I've never been unemployed for more than 15 minutes in all those years.
And there is a real shortage of techs in the industry right now.
