When I was a student at MIT I went by there one day to get something done on my car, someone had told me they were close by and good. Whoever I talked to was rude and obnoxious (I don't know if it was Ray or not, this was before the show I think), and their prices were quite high. I recall

I suspect Tom when downhill pretty fast, he sounded pretty good when they quit making new programs two years ago. I always got a kick out of listening, they were usually on Saturday mornings when I run errands. The world need more Tom Magliozzi's. Peter
