    Mahirap talaga makipagsapalaran sa banawe kung Wala Kang alam sa sasakyan. Sana nag tanong-tanong muna iyong senior citizen couple or nagpasama sa may experience sa mga auto.

    Oil for Change oil Lang daw Ang pinunta sa banawe. Na sales talk Ng kung anu-ano na.

    it's a dog eat dog world out there in banawe. Ika nga ni p. t. barnum, "A sucker is born every minute".

    ganyan talaga style

    you go there for one thing they're gonna point out other things that need to be replaced

    pag wala ka alam sa kotse at sabihan ka ng "delikado yan pag di palitan" mapapagastos ka talaga

    ganyan din naman ang casa mas subtle lang

    the car repair trade exploits the knowledge gap between mechanics and car owners

    it's your responsibility as car owner to close the gap

    Mga ganyan will do anything para lang kumita pa, Kung oil change lang din lang eh sa gas station pwede naman ipagawa.

    when going to banawe to have something fixed, i stick to my purpose.
    pag may inalok, either i say no thanks, or "nick's time na lang po. wala sa budget, eh."

    one time, however,
    the guy was carrying his wares on a display plywood over his back.
    knives.
    he was showing me a nice-looking itak.
    "meron ka bang mas maliit?"
    he showed me a 7 inch kitchen knife.
    nice! stinless na,
    made USA pa,
    and by Golden Dragon no less (bruce lee!).
    "gawa sa bolitas? bat hindi rilis ng tren?"
    "hinuhuli na raw, eh."
    heh heh.

    after over 2 decades,
    that knife is still with us, doing good service.
    hey! it holds its edge pretty well!
    mabuhay ang bolitas knives!

    errr,
    what's a balancer?
    by the listing, it seems rim and tyre lang ang hindi pinalitan...

    i do not know chevy prices,
    but don't these prices here seem inflated, by banawe standards....?

    the last time i had a front bearing in my 'nova replaced there,
    they suggested i have my front suspension aligned.
    obvious naman na hindi na pantay ang kain sa tyres,
    but... kinuripot ako!
    "next time na lang."
    highs.

    it's my very spare car, kasi.
    i drive it only when the coding car ain't easily available.

    Grabe, super overprice yung tie-rod.
    Yung tie-rod na nabili ko sa rear wheel, 400 lang for 1 pc.
    Pinalitan ko nalang rin yung isa sa kabila, plus labor of 200 sa gumawa.
    1k lang nagastos ko, pero sa pricing dito, tig 5k yung isa.

    Yung Lower balljoint yang 13,600.
    At isa pa, yung Upper Control Arm yung nagpamahal dito at 45,000.
    If ininstall eto ng shop, dapat branded yung ininstall.
    Since nag agree na isauli 70k, then I am suspecting they didn't install this part sa car.

    Ang dami nyan at na install nila yan ng hindi aware sa specifics ang customer eh obvious na nang scam sila.

    I doubt lahat yan pinalitan/ginawa nila.

    "where are the parts that you replaced from my car?"
    "hito po."
    "...aba! hindi pang-chevy ang mga ito! eh, mga sardinas ito, ah! (555) ."
    heh heh.
