Not so much bullied just sometimes they act as if you dont know your head from your tail . Sometimes it is better to go into a place with a brother or a guy but if you must go alone simply do a little homework first to brush up on things . It will catch them off guard and who knows maybe you will turn a head or 2 at the same time LOL -

I use to date a mechanic a long time ago and I still remember the one time he was doing something on my car and asked me to look at something under the hood. After he asked me how many times has a mechanic asked me to do that and i said pretty well all the time. Well I was informed that that was just so they could look down my top while I was leaning forwrd.

I already knew the price of the air filter and the one that they wanted to install was going to cost me double the price. I am glad that I am not a total idiot and can do some maintence on my car.

ha ha ha, that's a good one, never thought of that...... (the looking downn your shirt)

I'm glad the other half is sorta a jack of all trades he's showed me a whole bunch of stuff about everything..... but mechanics, i took a mechanic class before so i'd know the jist of things and would instantly know when i'm been taken for..... I like talking about things that I DO KNOW ABOUT, then the guys are like WTF, I thought chicks didn't know this ****.

the funny part is there was a lady in the bay next to me and her car was using oil big time. She was telling the guy that she had to keep adding oil every week and wanted to know what would happen if she just let it run out of oil and ran it like that. I almost started to laugh. At least know the basics if you are going to own a car. It is woman like her that give the rest of us a bad name.
