Usually in a bad part of town a good deal can be had, places usually speak Spanish and sell used tires as well.
Excellent Advice. Mexican Shops will even let you get your own parts and in (still) most large US Cities the Cab Companies there have Bulk Purchase Pricing with NAPA.
This means a guy can buy Brake Parts, anything they could possibly need to get their Brakes like Brand New
at the massively Discounted Price that Taxi Companies pay which is super super low cuz they've been buying from NAPA for years.
Cab Companies have to refurbish Brakes on their cars alot. Cuz those cars go 24/7 until they break. 12 Hour Shifts, one guy in another guy out of the car. They do this: Car being driven all over the place 24/7 until that car stops running (then they fix w/e made it stop, then put it back out, to The Fleet) only other way a Car escapes this Hell is if a dude Crashes it.
Even then they sometimes repair them. Point Is: This is a Brilliant Idea. Combined with That Uncovering of where the Large Taxi Firms in your City buy their parts from....
....generally Mexican Shops nowadays aren't Racist but the opposite of that: They're
Businessmen. They've come to a place where they Realize that to treat that rare white man that is Sharp Enough to bring his business to them might equal he recommends their shop.
In Past Times Mexican Shops were different. They'd
RESENT a White Man, for showing up at their shop with a bundle of Brake Parts bought at Pennies above what fuggin' NAPA spends for them cuz that White Devil ran a "
Hey. Tumbleweed Taxi Account, need some Brake Parts ASAP. How Long till you can get those over here."
So The Mexican Shop might rig a White person's Brakes up to where they'd fail so that he'd Crash & Die. Things are different now though.
Them Yesterday's Mexicans be a
TRIP.
You wanna work the Bulk (Wholesale) Pricing that Cab Companies get, Key Part is that
Bolded.
Call All Auto Parts Dealers (Big Ones)
in your City and say that to establish Ongoing Cheap Hookup for Auto Parts.
Key is to say the Bolded part in the total Right Way.
NO Question Mark. You will notice there is not a fucking Question mark there. You must get into that Role, MindSpace of a mechanic at a fuggin' Cab Company.
Key #2, Still (incredibly) in that small Bolded Part:
DELIVERY.
Come with Enough Fire just once. Eventually you will get That Account # and then you just call in and say: "Account #" and the parts you want.
Crash & Burn occurs (generally)
ONLY when you have Bad Luck of getting
Senior Dude like: Manager Guy on the phone who has dealt with The Cab Company for years
Try to still Save The Deal by saying Jorge is out cuz his Daughter is having a Baby.
When he says:
"Who the fuck is Horhay?" most normally he will say also:
"I usually deal with _______"
then you say: '
OK, same guy. We call him Jorge here at the shop bcuz he got arrested having sex with a Prostitute in a Barn."
Most Generally though it is Best not to try and Run This Scam on Upper Management at you local Auto Parts Store.
When you find which of Your Local Auto Parts Suppliers that Cab Company buys their Parts thru, you wanna not pursue this till you get a fuckin' kid on the phone.
Underling. Fuck With a Manager if you just wanna Practice being God of Deception, God of Thunder
Thats EGO tho, FOOLISH. Bridge to sooper cheap Brake Parts: You Risk Burning such
DOWN
managers mostly don't answer phones though, at Auto Parts Stores (at least where I have lived) to take
Orders and if MGR picks up as soon as he finds out its an order he'll give the phone to a kid who does not care about anything other than Pussy and Music and Beer so the whole affair is no thing like as bad as trying to avoid landmines in Laos.
