I took the car in for a routine annual DMV inspection. As long as I was there, I asked for an oil change and lube. Unlike nearly every other place, which charges a flat fee, Steven & Francine's charged me a flat fee PLUS labor for the job (not including the inspection). When I saw the bill, I told him that it was bush league to do that but since I was in a hurry I wasn't going to make a stink. The look I got back looked like he knew I had caught him trying to see if I would notice. He tried to offer me a deal for the next time I came in, but I told him I wouldn't be back because of the above experience.
