I was talking to a retired mechanic I know last night, and brought this up.

He says you can make money, but you have to hit EVERY garage that is in your area!!

Figure out what your costumers want and have it when you go back.

In todays world there are alot of high priced items out there, and most try to do with out. But you should have some available at all times or be able to order and have for them on next visit.

The one thing that was pissing him off the most was he would tell the guy he needed something and would take a month to get it! Or the guy would say he would get it and then skip a week cause he did not have it.

The other thing today is the Gas prices! Then SO trucks are not cheap to run
