Man, it's good to hear that from an "outside observer". Some inspection mechanics will stick to the letter of the law. Some mechanics will let non-critical violations slide. Then you have the "lick-and-stick" inspection mechanics...those are my favorite. They know how much of a farce the inspection racket really is.
I really wish PA would join the other states that DON'T have inspection, but it generates too much money for the state in taxes, fines, and fees...I'm pretty sure it'll never go away.
