>>>When did Gomer know cars? I am not being obtuse or fa-sish-us, just forgot >>>the episode(s) when he did.<<<
Well, a good example is "Gomer the House Guest" when Wally fired Gomer because he spent too much time jawing with the customers about the 30-cent bet he had with Bertie Blush (or was it Birdie? After all, when he got excited, he sounded just like a jay bird.). And thirty cents ain't hay, ya know! Consequently, when Gomer was staying at Andy's house, everyone who needed work done on their vehicles -- Luther, Merle Dean, Willy Jack, etc. -- showed up at Andy's house so that Gomer could do the repairs. Business fell off at Wally's so much that Wally rehired Gomer and even threw in an extra burner and an icebox for his kitchenette! (With all those improvements, Gomer might even think about getting married.) Gomer must have been pretty adept at fixing cars, since all his customers came to find him instead of going to Wally.
