    No sir, not at all. I like the specific games threads and the other games threads for MAC and shit like that. Just remember, every time we create a new thread ERCOT raises our rates. We are like bitcoin miners of football and stupid shit.  

    Well then sit back, relax, and enjoy the 2nd half.

    Bumping because motherfucking scamming assholes. The CE light came on (I think it’s a real minor thing) and since we are new to the area I had my wife drop it at a dealer with instructions for diagnostics and a quote before any work.

    Anyway these shitheels call her back and she passed them on for me. I get the tech on the phone and he tell me it needs an EVAP smoke test and they’ll be happy to do it for a cost of $550.  I laugh out loud and say that I’ll be there in the morning when they open to get the car and would like a manager to explain to me why I should pay for the any diagnostic at all after a gotdamn pathetic scam attempt (a smoke test should be easily 3 times less than that quote). 
     

    Then this motherfucker immediately says “I’ll talk to my manager, I actually see here the charge for a smoke test is $185.” 
     

    No thanks, pal. Don’t touch the car, I’ll be there tomorrow to get it.  POS. And now I gotta take off work and also try and find a non-shithead mechanic. I was even doing the dealer willing to pay extra so as not to worry as much about this type of bullshit.

    Anyway, fuck the dealer model we need to go to manufacturer sales and support. 

    It’s a 1997; can’t you just buy a $30 scan tool like fixd to run the codes for you?
