Yes, stay away from Midas or Meineke. You asking for a good fleecing of the pocket book, AND, not everyone but MOST, at least in my area, have some minimum wage flunky doing the work but charging dealer prices...or higher. If most folks could see what goes on in the shop area they'd croak!! I go to these places everyday delivering parts and its atrocious what they do to people. Nuff said. Sorry if I offended anyone but its the truth around here.
Had a local guy, who wants to remain in business, ran my complete exhaust system from front to back, driver side, and it cost me !20 bucks including the flowmaster style muffler.
