The ones I am talking about has good foot or should I say business traffic right off the main road. They are jam packed with cars. They must be junks that have been sitting, waiting to be sold off or they are really backed up with a ton of work. I am sure you notice it up there too.

Yeah, this place is 6 bays, 6 lifts. Every time I have driven by, 4-6 bays are full and 3-5 cars in the lot. I'm sure there are slow days. The business is in a really good location, at the intersection of two major roads. Every car needs brakes and oil changes, hopefully more. The corporate office prides itself on 'honesty' and will not tolerate deceitful practices, over charging, etc.
I guess it boils down to risk. What am I willing to lose if things turn to *****
