QUOTE (awd4kicks @ Jan 6 2004, 11:17 AM) Whoa GSXracer...back off a bit. Generalizations are not a good thing, but in this case I think it is more correct than not. I deal with dealers and after market retail stores more than most. I can vouch for a lack of service when it comes to knowledge about auto repairs and the parts required from most of the people that work at these places. Even the people that seem to be idiots claim to know what their talking about, so that doesn't add much weight to the argument. If you were a third party that would shed a different light. Without calling anyone a moron (and I'm sure awd4kicks isn't either), I tend to agree. It's hard to go into a parts store and find someone who really knows what's going on behind the counter. I've had everything from a nice young lady who probably belonged more at the checkout at wal-mart (nothing against women), to an old guy who couldn't even use the computer in front of him, but had to keep thumbing through the catalogs to try to find parts. -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....
