You know I also think that in a way the dealerships almost create the market for independent garages by there costs. There are a lot of consumers who are willing to forgo the warranty coverage, wait a few more days to get there car back in order to pay less money. Kind of like flying coach vs first class, which is not to say you cant get superior service at a mom and pop place either.
Good point. I know that I will match or beat an independant shop every chance I get if it means I get a big ticket and good hours when it's slow like it is now.
