They say if you spend a long time with someone, you begin to look/act alike. The Pope (my car) and I have been together for years. I eat a lot and now, Pope ate my CD's. I can't live a day without listening to music so, this was pretty serious matter.
I've been talking to Aldo, the mechanic, over the phone. He gave me a quote and I thought it was pretty reasonable compared to taking my car to the dealer. He told me it would take about 2 hours to fix my radio which is another plus. It would've taken a whole day at the dealer.
Aldo specializes in German cars as well as Infiniti. After an hour of waiting and admiring the mirrors that were everywhere in the waiting area (I was waiting for Ron Jeremy to come out of one of the suites), I decided to leave my car and get something to eat. A few minutes later, Aldo called me to let me know my car was ready. It took him less than 2 hours and I like it when people underpromise and over deliver and not vice versa.
