I think there's a dealership here in S.F. that charges $125.00/hr. Ouch. That's why I try to make my own repairs.

From all that I have read about and know for myself, California has to be the absolute worst place in North America to be a car and/or truck enthusiast. Let's see now, the State of California boasts: the highest gasoline prices, the highest repair rates, the strictest emissions and safety standards, it's the most difficult state to register a vehicle in, and I bet we can even throw in the highest property taxes and highest insurance rates, too.

I feel for you guys and gals out there, I really do.

Well while I might sook about our petrol prices, I am glad about this one...

My dealer (a very rural dealer) charges Au$50hr - about US$35...

I still get all my repairs performed there.
