No “power training” for the latter victim.

Ed, you should never tell a woman her rear end is bad.

She’ll be looking for a differential opinion.

Imagine having an Oil Change & Blood Transfusion mixup! “Sorry Lady, we had a slight problem in the shop.”

When she dropped her husband off for surgery did she Wait or pick out a Loaner?

Give her a few minutes, she’s stuck in first gear.

Had to replace the differential on our car a few years ago – $3200!

Your car has a flat, so we used your husbands spare tire.

This might have worked better with: “Your husband’s differential is shot. He’s going to need surgery, stat.”

Hey, that lift rack is useful also for surgeries.

Used to have a barber-dentist-mortician, this is the modern version.

Most auto shops charge as much as a doctor’s office.

“Now, about the car …”

she can barely muffle a sob…

Reminds me of what my doctor told me after my last physical. “The motor is sound but the chassis’s shot”.

The pricing is very similar.
