What a mechanic will give you is an unbiased, 3rd party opinion on the state of the vehicle ... at least that's what you are paying for in theory. The dealer (or person) wants to get rid of the car, so you cannot trust their opinion explicitly. In most cases you cannot trust your own opinion, because you are gaining an emotional attachment to the vehicle. The mechanic should provide you with a clear picture, but that picture is not always complete, nor should we expect it to be. As you say, they are only human. | |
