when you guys take your car to the tire shop, do you let those guys drive the car into/from the work area? Afraid some of them may not be familiar with s2k,(starting the car, putting it in reverse) and to be honest, I just don't like anyone else driving my car~

Another anal s2k owner just wondering what others do.

yeah...i believe their insurance companies require them to have their employee drive into the work areas and up the ramps, etc. but i watch them like a hawk
