Re: MORE Stupid Idiots

Ok, $.02 or whatever.

I used to look down on people who don't know anything about their rides. But, after 17 years as a mechanic, I can appreciate those who are smart enough to realize that they don't know, don't want to know, and would rather have someone else fix it.

I have come in to a lot of jobs where one of the mechanically declined masses has taken something apart, and then realized that they were in waaayyyy over their head. By the time I get it, parts are bent/broken/missing/etc. and I have to try and put it all together again. Usually they explain what led to these circumstances, and I can relate, I also tell them that its cool to ask questions of those who know, rather than jump in feet first and land on their head.

Trying to keep the cost down, for the guy who wanted to cheap out and do his own stuff, is usually no longer an option in these cases.

If someone slags one of my rides, and drives a "signature" car, I laugh at them, but I don't call them down for not knowing anything. I just let them know that I find more satisfaction in building what I drive, than chasing lot lizards in a car that daddy's money paid for.

I think if your mechanical abilities are limited to changing a flat, and maybe changing oil and filters, great. at least know the basics. These are the " basics " that everyone should know. Beyond that, hey, if you're not into it, leave it to the guys who do it for a living.

Happy motoring

Re: MORE Stupid Idiots

Hey, I don't know crap, and what Dave says about the technical side (like most things he says ) goes in one ear and out the other.

But I dont care. It means that I can say "Oi, its making a noise" and I dont have to pay $50 bucks to find out

Dave isnt really into guns or planes, and its the same situation.

My point is, you're mates, who cares?
