I think you find that most medium size to large Dealer will try to control everthing in this Day and age. With the electronics of today IE the computer, the Cell Phone, and the GPS systems. the Dealer are collecting there share. They charge Travel to and from the customer every chance they get. They know where the tech is all the time. If there work order system is Tied to the computer and a GPS theres not Much a Tech can change. As for hours billed travel to one area and work at 3 or 4 differnt customer does make the Tech any more money in most cases. But the dealer does bill all 3 or 4 customer the same Travel. An if you ask them that's their Right. Some Even charge a computer hook up charge of a $25.00 to $35.00 So if you think that Tech are getting benifits what is the Dealer Getting. He save uses less gas, and sometime the computer they are charging the hookup for is owned by the Tech. So who is the winner.!!!
