I wonder if they'd skip the certification if I show them pictures of the 6.0?

usually when a dealership is looking for a "factory certified tech" it means they are required to have XX certified techs as a franchise requirement, but they do not want to fund training or afford for a tech being off the floor while training just to meet the requirement. hiring someone with all the certs is much more cost effective for them. usually they are not willing to pay someone with a resume like that what they are worth, and never get someone to hire on with them.

i just had to fix my sisters saab over the phone. i am now officially BORED. let the trailer park boys marathon begin!

Welcome back Miles.
I had to go and pull a neighbors friend out of a snow back after they hit some black ice on my street.
