I ended up buying my first breaker bar extension (pipe) just to get enough leverage to get the drat lugs off of a vehicle that was just in the stealership before I bought it. I don't have the receipt (or the car) anymore, but the comments section was amazing. They screwed the guy by telling him he really really really needed to replace timing chain (gasket was leaking - they all do that eventually with this model, car was under 50k since last replacement), talked him into a new SAAB-style ignition coil because it was brought in and "starts rough in the cold" - which was not even related to that, new tires, and of course they put the old style metal clips on to balance the alloys - years after the self-applying ones were available, and scraped the poo poo out of them. I can't remember the rest, but it ended up costing nearly the cars' net worth. E: Had someone try to play the "tires so bald I can't legally let you leave" on a female relations' car when there was at least 5/16ths left with no under/overinflation or cupping issues. Needless to say they lost any future business and managed to magically find they were talking about the wrong vehicle after a call to corporate.

ASE for Mechanics is akin to A+ for computer nerds. You are either a tool, or older than the tool. Neither means you are good (or capable).
