hey fastfredracing it used to be 50/50 back in the fifties and up to the mid sixties. you should ask what other trade do you need so many tools and training to make so little money that is why there are so many openings for automotive technicans not grease monkeys. most people think cars are easy to work on because goober from the andy griffin show in the fifties was a joke on the trade. now in 2011 people think that automotive technicians make $75.00 an hour because dealers charge $120.00 an hour. they do not have a clue or care about what it takes to work on todays technology. most of the time they are mad because they have to spend money period. most people do not have the skills to repair cars properly so they look for the cheapest person and usually spend more on the repair because they are back and forth many times to the same cheap guy. then they come to a professional technician and cry that they just paid x amount on repair and it still is not right the old saying is you get what you pay for but most people do not want to pay period.after 38 years of working on porsche cars the saying still is that the cheapest part on a porsche is the owner.
