gotta love living ina state where ti is illegal to pump your own gas right?
It can go either way. I personally don't have a problem with it, however I would like to be able to pump my own gas when it comes to the Monte. My rear panel is scratched up because of the idiots at Arco just slamming the nozzle in the filler (haven't used Arco since the engine swap in 2003). It would be nice to just be able to stay in the booth during the winter and 90+ degree days during the summer. After working at the station for 5+ years, I understand why Oregon has a self serve ban... people are idiots. I've seen a lot of things happen that would make you go "WTF?"

I'm a lead tool and die moldmaker. Almost 34 years now. I have done a lot of design in the past, but currently I'm doing the building of the molds. I do most of my own CNC work, as well as all of the bench work involved. I work too many hours, and drive too far.
The bread and butter of our shop is brake fluid reservoirs and power window parts, but mine is drive by wire gas pedals. Just finished one foe Chrysler, and the next one is Honda.
Parts is parts.
Merry Christmas to you all.

I'm a retired police officer. I've also worked in car sales, and as a commercial pilot and flight instructor. Currently, I work in casino security - the most fun, stress-free job I've ever had (although I couldn't do it without my pension).

Hey I started as a tool & Die apprentice and worked my way through shop management, to middle management all the way into the corporate executive management. Hot/Warm/Cold forging and stamping & assemblies. I'm basically an Industrial Engineerthat specialized in Quality and Operation Efficiency. 5S, Kaizen, Synchronist Organization, Sigma, TPS, QS9000, QS14000, TS16949, VDA1.9, Kan-Ban, Multi-MFG, etc., etc., etc... Now I finance cars... I hate working in a dealership, and love manufacturing, but what are you going to do...
