Son wants to go into Automotive Tech

Way back in the 70's I went to Denver Automotive and Diesel Collage. Now I believe it is Lincoln Tech.
Had a instructor that stated "You may not have a high paying job,but you will always have a job". He was right. I have never been without a job,nor was ever laid off, or ever on any public assistance.
The automotive field branches way out.Not only cars and trucks,but farm equipment, heavy earth moving equipment,pumps,etc.
I scored a job with a factory maintaining forklifts and warehouse order pickers along with stationary equipment.
Now almost 50 years later I still get to play with Hot Rod Mopars. Worked for me !
