| | | | Ten Clunker Cars To Avoid < on 11/14/2009 1:44 AM > | Reply with Quote
| | | http://www.forbes....ml?thisspeed=25000 Chevrolet Colorado (i actually like this truck) Chrysler Sebring Convertible Chrysler Town & Country Dodge Grand Caravan Ford F-250 (really? wth?) GMC Canyon Jaguar XF Lincoln MKS Mercedes-Benz GL450 Volkswagen Touareg Who the hell writes these articles? Why would the Colorado and the Canyon be on the same list? Arent they the same truck, different branding? What information are the editors using to qualify these cars as "clunker cars to avoid", the cost of annual repairs? Idiots! BTW, i would take a Lincoln MKS AWD and a Touareg.

i've found that the service advisors 'pad' the time service times to cover any issues the tech runs into.
| That's kind of scary to be honest, though I know it happens. To me, having managed and still managing shops, that's a tech double dipping from the flat rate system. If he beats the flat rate time, he still gets the full flat rate pay and moves onto the next job. If he's slower for whatever reason, he's now asking for and getting more money. The only time the flat rate system should be compromised like that where the tech gets more money is if the issues are caused by something seized, excessively rusted, broken etc... but that should only be done at the time it's discovered, not padded ahead of time. dirty dirty
