So what's wrong with the reputable garages near you that are run by Hispanics? Do you really think your car cares who works on it?

I probably worded that wrong all of the non-reputable shops include the ones run by Hispanics.

Exhaust work is extremely simple, it does not require an advanced tech degree. I think you are making a mountain out of a molehill here. I doubt that all those "Hispanic" service centers don't have English speaking people working there, or they'd soon be out of business. I think you are talking out of a biased personal opinion and not from an open mind. If you want to survive and excel in this world you need to open your eyes and broaden your horizons.

THANK YOU. Besides, I'm sure the mexican muffler guys speak enough english to know what 'I need a catalytic converter' means.

Yeah, but my point is that, this is America, English is our National Language, I shouldn't need to go into a shady Mexican Muffler shop and Speak Spanish to the shop owner to get work done on my American Car, that's NOT how it works!
If you're happy with taking your car into a shady muffler shop that may or may not be run by Hispanics that don't speak English, that's fine with me, but I want to be able to get work done on my car by a reputable mechanic that Speaks English, and that isn't going to try and rip me off, but like I said shops like that don't seem to exist near me sadly enough.

You're off base here and I find a few of your replies in this thread extremely offensive. Maybe try thinking about what you post before you click the post button.

Levi , It's posts like this that caused Tim to give you a three day timeout , and then you come back here with the very same type of posts on the first day your allowed back ? Let me clue you in on something here , because you clearly ARE misinformed ;

Yes indeed , in public , your first amendment rights do give you some limited latitude as to your speech and beliefs , but here at this and any other PRIVATELY OWNED forum you belong to the first amendment does NOT cover you from "hate speech" which is exactly what your posting when you denigrate an entire group of people ! The rules you agreed to when you signed up to post here clearly stated what is , and more importantly what ISN'T , allowed . Now , take this to heart ; this privately owned forum owes you exactly NOTHING with regards to allowing you to spew your obvious bias against any group of people .

I predict your return will be VERY short lived indeed if you don't reconsider your combative posting style , yes I said combative because in every "captain clock" post I've read over the past few days you've been insulting anyone and everyone who has responded to your posts . So some folks don't think you have an 1880s chair , is that really enough to go on the warpath over and get permabanned for ?

The ball is in your court , play it wisely .......
