Wait, what?

I replaced the spark plugs and wires in my Accord in front of a car wash next to the garage where the mechanic said "I'm not fixing your car! You fix your car!"
"Will you please reinstall the spark plugs and wires?"
"No! You do it! Not here!"
"If you will not replace my spark plugs and wires, how am I supposed to get my car out of here?"
"Get it towed!"

So, …

Someone commented that not everybody is obsessed with reliable cars. Some people just want an exciting car. I do not need the excitement of "Will my car get me to work today?!" and "Will my car even start today?!"
+1 to everything! On my 2000 Honda Accord I had to replace two or more motor mounts 4 times in the 18 years I owned it. Also was on my third transmission (Honda had a bad year).
