Girl I shake my head....
I think they quoted you prices without checking part prices...what I used to do before I found our current mechanic who is good and honest was ask for exactly what part needed changing and I would call parts stores and go get them myself and take them to the mechanic...if there was a "core" charge then I got old part back and went for my money NOW...of course easier to do when I have a H and son who are more mechanically inclined and a spare car to get around....we only take repairs to AJ that are not something easily done or too hard to get to (newer cars seem to hide the parts more)
I say with all you are doing the price isn't too bad....just make sure you get the old parts and that someone who knows what they ought to look like verifies that is what they are. Esp at a dealer they can BS faster than any machnaic I have ever met because people seem to trust a dealer more readily....
Here's to some warmth my dear....it is currently -9 and counting and more snow expected. Had some guy I met on accident do shoveling...he is out of work and for $30 did the drive way (3 cars mind you) and the whole walk way. I offered him a bit mroe - he refused. A guy who can clean the whole area by himself for $30 in 90 minutes in this cold has my vote for a dude who deserves a job....unfortunately he lost his right after Christmas and is doing whatever he can to pay the bills....I am glad to have met him and he is on time about calling and being here....
Ok back to my hot chocolate....
