      Working on vehicles under flat rate will really change your outlook on repairing cars.
      It leads to dishonesty because you want to make money in addition to repairing the vehicles problems.
      Tool costs,education and constantly having to keep up with changing models. Flat rate times usually always go down over time when short cuts are found. Dealerships have ridiculous warranty and recall times that will leave you in the poor house if you don’t find yourself at the right shop. favoritism by service writers and shop managers who are only concerned with making the largest possible bonus,employees be damned.

      Maybe try and find a union shop to join up with. I hear they have life a little better than the rest of us.

          I’ve used it,my shop has it. Personally I feel like the user interface is clunky and it’s just a pain to deal with. I use my Maxisys pretty much exclusively now.
