I couldn't give 2 ***** what's in his wallet or bank accounts, it's the total lack of judgement & negligent, irresponsible behavior I care about. How is calling these fools out bad for us? It's better to let people outside of our automotive domain know that We're not all negligent dufusses, that We're NOT OK with it, and We expect more from Ourselves than this.
Ya know, I had an older dude come to Me for an alignment years ago, his pride & joy....I believe it was a '56 Chevy. It had an aftermarket frt. disc brake setup with different steering hardware, & when I shook it down, half of the hardware was either installed incorrectly, or just plain loose....bolts, spacers etc. The steering knuckles were moving around a ton, we're not just talking a caliper bracket here.
When I informed Him I was unable to perform the alignment & why, He acted like I just told Him He had a tiny *****, all of his offspring looked & smelled like a pack of stray mutts, & His old lady was routinely doing all the frat houses on the weekend!!!!! We offered to correct the issues & recheck the frt. end if He'd like, ...nope. He took off & never came back.
Missed His business like an itchy nutsack. His ego was more important to Him than the condition & proper operation of His "Pride & Joy", and more important than the safety of other motorists & pedestrians.
