You know, one of the most fun things about being a blond is the shocked looks that you get when people realize that you do actually have a brain. You would not believe all of the lies that I have been told by unscrupulous mechanics that thought that they could pull a fast one on me just because I’m a blond woman. I used to dread getting an oil change because I would always be lied to about my car needing some type of repair or another that I knew that it did not need. It never worked. This went on for years until I finally found a place that did not try to convince me that there was something wrong with my car unless there really was. I’ve been going there ever since.
I have news for you, FRiend. They lie to EVERYONE like that, even other mechanics. They pretty much all do it. No shame or conscience whatsoever. I've caught them countless times myself. Fortunately, I know a little something about cars.
