Does this sound right to you? Many thanks for sharing your insights!!

I do most of the repairs on my rig but for fun I recently called my local Toyota dealer to get an estimate for LABOR ONLY for the following:
- install brake pads - all around
- install rotors - all around
- install front CV axles
The total time it took me to replace the above items was 2 hours total and that is me working by myself on the ground with jack stands and manual wrenches.
Toyota said it was an 8 hour job and quoted me $1,200 for labor only.
I get that some things we have to take into the dealership but it's clear the dealers are straight up lying and ripping people off.
