I understand what you mean. This site contains great advice and of course it's in your best interest to pass on suggestions and/or question the mechanics that work on your car. For $65/hour (or whatever the going rate is now) you should be able to do that without getting dirty looks.

I have met some independent shop mechs who are really considerate and knowlegable, but in my opinion they are rare and are not representative of mechanics as a whole (even dealers). I won't go as far as some others on this board who say that ALL mechanics are crooks, but that industry certainly has their share of them.
