Had my 30K service yesterday

Is this Toyota factory recommended dealer service ?
Every time I go to a dealer, not just Toyota, they pull up a custom screen on their computer of bogus / simple inspections / tighten these nuts with high prices. All local dealer recommendations, not the car mfgr's. The answer to this sales job from me is NO Thanks

Had my 30k done last week for a grand total of $452. 08. About $320 was lab mechanical. What the hell is lab mechanical?

Labor-Mechanical vs Labor-Electrical or Labor-Bodywork, paint, etc.

Depends on what they did. Most all shops are charging anywheres from 60.00 to 90.00 per hour now. Maybe more in certain areas. That can add up pretty quick. I think the standard is .5 hours. (In other words, even if it takes 10 min, they bill 1/2 hour for the function), I may be wrong on that. Check your bill. Who knows, they may actually have given you a break! Be Safe.

So...30k service is an oil change.

"military flyers get all the cool toys"
Seriously? That set you off? Probably meant it as a compliment.

Naah, the kid was a punk, zero tact whatsoever. The impression he gave me was "ooooh look, flying guy, I bet he has friends that want a camry....". Wait, that cant be possible.

I only know one single guy who drives one and frankly... He will always be so it makes sense. So the .01% of the population is covered. Moving on... Lol!!
