I'm a lazy bastard!

I will do some things (brakes, tune up stuff, etc) but anything major (pulling engine/tranny, setting up gears, anything to do with wires) I leave to the professionals. I just have more confidence in them than myself. I also have a VERY limited tool set, so I can only do certain things.
