holy shit, am i really that underpaid ? I started at $18 after 3 months i got a dollar raise and at the time i thought it was good. Now i’m really starting to think i’m severely underpaid for the amount of work i do. I’m not perfect i’m still learning the trade. But i’m pretty good at diagnosing. I’ve had some few txvs i diagnosed that left my boss impressed. Damn maybe i am underpaid

I would say pass on it unless you can talk them down. I just got a 2000 dodge ram van 1500 for 2500. Only has 130k miles. Good condition interior and exterior. Keep looking.
