The ledger is open — type to consult.
No lift. No shop. No mechanic on speed dial. Just a guy in his driveway with a socket set, a YouTube video, and a lot of hope. Real DIY car repair stories, tool reviews from someone who's bought the wrong wrench twice, and honest breakdowns of which jobs you can tackle yourself — and which ones are a one-way ticket to a tow truck.
