When GM was about to open their Saturn assembly plant in Spring Hill TN, somebody in management decided to send five recent graduates of GM Tech (where they train their rookie engineers) to my class. Those four young men and one lady knew a lot about making cars- - - - -and virtually nothing about fixing them. Discussing auto repair from a flat rate mechanic's viewpoint was- - - -"enlightening"- - - - -their words, not mine! LOL! Jerry
