Some of the best mechanics I ever met were independent ones.

Enthusiasts take a lot of time to buy their cars. It might be more accurate to say that sports cars are emotional buys rather than logical buys, and I regard both as rational.

Independents can very often be the best! It's hard to know, though, except by choosing one and seeing by dumb luck how it goes. So far I have been lucky in being able to take care of most of my maintenance, but there's a timing belt lurking for the Hondizzle, so I'll have to make a choice at some point.
