I know most of you guys get your cars worked on by the dealerships. I hate it when they joyride my car, and I know I'm not alone on this. A road test for a transmission fluid change and inspection/emissions? Give me a break. They already heard it from me, I'll be looking for a new place to get work done...

When I worked at a Ford dealer, boy o boy they knew what they were driving. Whenever I saw a Cobra being driven by employees....they didnt exactly stay at the 20 MPH limit on the roads inside the dealership. That road test they did sounds reasonable to me though? I wouldn't want your car leaving our service center without some sort of proper testing first you know, just to keep you at peace of mind, and us knowing we did a good job and you wont come back with a lawsuit to slap in our faces lol, if I were a service manager or tech.

^ The techs at the Ford dealer I worked at never did that stuff, it was actually the Detail guys LOL. Literaly, EVERY car this one detail guy drove pass us, he would burn out or something, from mustangs to minivans, cobras to cobalts, it was funny because the tech I worked with would cuss at him lmao.

I watch over the guy who works on my car like a hawk when it goes there, but according to them, it was "on the emission machine" for about 15-20 minutes. :rolleyes:
