My brother loved working on Nissans, and he loves working on Hondas. Its the people who he works with that he hates, or hated.

Those new civics are pretty cool on the inside. I sat in a Hybrid yesterday. Felt really good.

I bet they REALLY hate their jobs. Sure, it might be cool at first because they're fucking exotics, but the amount of work you would have to do just to change the oil would probably be insane.

ive been working for lexus for 2 years and i love it. they are easy to work on and it pays well. there is the occasional POS that rolls in here and im pissed off most of the day, but it doesnt happen often. im sure its like that at any dealership.

there are lots of techs who love the company they work for, other wise they wouldnt be working there...

as far as recalls, EVERY company has recalls. that is a pretty dangerous problem, but like i said, it happens. we have had our share of recalls here at lexus.
