Self reliance is a clever synonym for poverty, lol.  I say do what you do best, and let the other guy handle what he does best.  You'll both be better off for it.

Disagree. I do a lot of my own maintenance simply because I enjoy it. I don't have to, indeed if I have not the time I have no issue dropping my wheels to a garage for whatever. But when I do that, I can spot a rip off a mile away because I am simply familiar with the work involved. Plus some jobs require specialised tools/equipment which I have no inclination to purchase since A: they are expensive and B: are rendered useless next time I change cars.

That said, I have an ODB reader since that is universal. And pays for itself by identifying many cheaply replaced faulty parts like faulty sensors on pretty much any car.
