I forgot to add...HE LETS ME BRING PARTS I BUY FROM THE
LIST VENDORS no problem so long as they are top quality
and they are delivered prior to or at the time the
vehicle is dropped off.  This alone can save a bundle,
but don't abuse the privilege by asking that he wait
for you to get a part he discovers you need while the
van is on the lift...that's pushing it!  And if the
part fails, it's your dime to pull it and replace it.
