When the mechanic says you need a new throttle body it normally means a LOT of money. The labor involved along with the part can really add up. With most parts like this it is normally best (if you decide to do the job) to replace with the OE part. It doesn't make any sense to pay all of that labor money on a vital component and have it fail shortly afterwards. At Autopartstomorrow.com we have the original part number in stock and ready to ship. The best part is we have it at true wholesale pricing. Call the dealership and check our price... we have been told in the past they are about twice what we charge. The job is still going to be painful to pay for, but with the savings you get from us maybe it helps make more sense and ease the suffering just a little. If you have any questions at all, or if you need assistance in confirming the right part number, call our team of experts and we will be glad to help. 

For much quicker response time, and to get more exact fitment questions answered we find it is always best to speak with you live, so that we might ask any questions the catalog presents. We want to make sure you get exactly what you are looking for. It is also very helpful if you have the vehicle identification number (VIN) from your insurance card available when you contact us. Please call 1-866-545-2035 and speak with one of our highly trained, experienced parts experts (available 9AM-5PM EST). We look forward to hearing from you!

Into the Mist...

My family drives mostly older vehicles. One of the perks of selling auto parts is that I am surrounded by many very talented automotive people who are always ready to help diagnose and repair problems that may crop up. It is also good to be around them from a habit forming perspective. If you love cars, you take care of your cars. Knowing that your car has been maintained correctly helps to build the confidence needed to drive cars well past the 200,000 mile mark that 3 of my cars are either approaching or have recently passed. 

I have blogged in the past about how I remember in High School standing in awe of anyone with a car aged past the 100,000 mile mark. Now, with the availability of great replacement parts and well engineered vehicles, twice that is normal. I will admit that once you approach that mark, where you get your auto parts becomes more of an issue. However, I would have no problem at all replacing an alternator on Monday, and heading out on a cross country trip on Tuesday. 

The uncertainty of quality can be put in the past if you buy from Autopartstomorrow.com. Throw the suitcase in the trunk, grab your coat and go... Let's take that trip we have been thinking about. Drive on into the mist... with confidence.

Aspiring Auto Mechanic?

With the growing technical aspects of the ever increasingly complex systems contained in automotive applications, "Mechanic" is a dying term. Many new recruits to this field are now considered "Technicians". My feeling is that this trend will continue. Cars and trucks are increasingly just mobile computer networks connected to and engine and four wheels. The Auto Tech of the future will need to be fully vested in computer diagnostic techniques and the larger diagnostic systems that will help them find issues. As such, I feel that pay rates will be rising for good, intelligent and well qualified candidates. Check out this site for possible schools that might help place you into this category.

P.S. Don't let pre-conceived ideas of what a car mechanic was in the past, cloud your vision to the potential income of this coming "High Tech" job.
