so.... just wondering... am I the only one??? I take my SUV... in for service... and... yes... indeedie it is a "man's" world...

I think... I can "manage"... the "basics".... yet... it is "don't you worry little lady, we'll get it all fixed up for you"... well I do appreciate that... but when you are charging me.. 1,000... or 400... or 500 dollars.. I would like to know... why....

I've gone thru a "spat" of repairs... things like tires.. and ball joints.. and wheel bearings lately... and... yes... I would like to know why the wheel bearing is going out hmm... 3rd time in 2 years.... "other than hearing it just happens to that type of vechicle that you are driving followed by a hehehehehehe"...

and... finally after calling a "parts" place.. I found the answer...the person there was kind enough to explain.. the factors that can impact the "wear" on a wheel bearing...

But... it isn't just the one shop... it has been various places...

This isn't a "rant"... it is an observation....while...sitting in the various shops... the difference... in treatment of the male customers.. as opposed to the female customers...

so am I the only one... that is treated that way???
