My rants about tune up
Although there are plenty of independent mechanics around, you may find that a national chain is a better choice for three reasons. Speed is the first reason. Chains cut back on the amount of time you have to wait for the mechanics to get necessary parts because they an afford to keep a large inventory of parts on hand. Chains also have more employees than all but the very largest independent shops, so they have the staff on hand to a two man car repair easily and to speed up repairs by adding more mechanics if the job can go faster with more hands. An assurance of quality is the second reason.
