Maybe for some. My nephew came through this area on his way to a new job in a new state. We were happy to have him for a couple of days. Zero doubt he could change a tire. He had a business as a kid of dragging home every lawn mower other people put on the curb for big trash day. He would fix them up, and sell them. At one point he had 17 mowers. Some people would offer him less than his asking price and he would not budge on price. He always sold them for full price.

My brother taught him how to take apart just about anything and fix it.
