Went to my local Toyota dealer today to look at new Rav4s. Get to talking to the sales guy. He asks me about my current cars and whatnot. Tell him I have a 2004 Rav4 with 333,000 miles. He's a bit shocked. After we look at the new Rav4s he asks me where I take my vehicle for servicing. I tell him I do it my self. He just stares at me in disbelief. He asks if I'm a mechanic. I tell him no. He asks where I do the work, if I have a garage. I say, yes, I have a garage. He says, "Oh, you have one of those lifts in floor to raise the car up?" I laugh, no. Now, he's really curious. How do you get under the car to change the oil? I nearly blow his mind when I tell him I changed the starter and radiator in the Rav4 and learned how on youtube. "How can you learn this from youtube?" I thought it was funny that a car salesman knows zero about basic car maintenance.
