My truck broke down and I had to get a mechanic to diagnose and repair it.
How awful.  Do you know anything about mechanics? I wish I do.
All I know is they quote a price to fix it and it always seem to cost more than the quote
Yes I hate that I don't know if they are overcharging me, I hope I knew at least that.  It seem to be the same for repairs or remodeling my home.
I always follow through when the mechanic suggests preventative maintenance in the hopes it will prevent an expensive repair later. i
