        I assume this is the company:

          Yes, it's a friend's place. Hasn't opened yet. I told him I thought the name was okay but some might be offended. I love the logo and the tagline. But he's gotten some negative feedback and is trying to decide if he was too hasty.

            I wouldn't go with "Lube Buddies" either....

                  car repair is a funny thing. you can call yourself anything but as long as you do it better than anyone else you can be anything.

                  my confession: I left my hybrid insight in the rain with a crack windshield that leaked water messed up my wiring harness so bad I parked it over the winter and bought another car. a 1992 Volvo. so I go to this place called santos garage when I inevitably have problems with the old Volvo.

                  it's weird sitting there while customers speak another language around me I can't understand. but in the end I know im being treated fairly. and I could fix this stuff myself. but I don't want too.

                  stop being anti garage and just be anti-dealership. the most trust worthy garages are anti dealer. even if you can't speak their language.

                    Lube Lesbians might bring in the traffic.

                            I'm guessing Lube Doctors would not be well received, either.
