cjsdowg 08/25/23 2:43:38 PM #1:	I needed new front brakes and rotors for my jeep. The first place I went to, near my new home, quoted me $3,500. I told them I had to go to work, so I couldnt get it done then. I took it to my old shop in my old hometown and they charged me only $350. Like that extra zero is a lot. Did the first place think I was a poindexter or something, because they tried to rip me off, or did the place I know give me a hella of deal. I how jack and crap about cars. So they could have said it anything. --- "Big Sweaty Otis" -Titus O'Neil <cite>cjsdowg posted [p:975658875] in Did this a...

Either they were too busy or dont like working on your model and quoted you an exorbitant amount to make you go somewhere else, but will do it if youre that much of a sucker. --- Posted from my iPhone 13 <cite>Pitlord_Special posted [p:975659427] in Did this a...

Yeah, for whatever reason it's more likely that they didn't want to service your car, rather than actually charging 3500.
