Hello everyone! MOPAAAAAAAAAR

Ok, now that I'm officially regarded as a goober/nerd/nutcase, let me say HELLO to you all.

My name is Rob, and I'm not happy when I have two broken down vehicles.

I'm a guy who'd rather fix my own car than take it some place to fix it. The problem is, I don't have the knowledge/experience/tools to do so. I have a couple of friends that are more "advanced" than me (by advanced, I mean they feel at home at Advanced Auto) but it still bugs me that I can't pay myself $50/hr for labor.

I have tinkered with some light mechanical work, so I have a very, VERY basic idea of what I'm doing.

I'm here to be encouraged to treat my car respectfully and care for it professionally, while learning some skills along the way.

Let the learning begin!

PS: My car is a 1999 Plymouth Breeze Expresso (I prefer to call it a Windy Coffee, it sounds more masculine.) My wife's car is a 2001 Dodge Neon. At the time of posting, neither is operational.....
