Ha. Birthday dinner for my mom and sister at Macado's in Galax. Had a few drinks, started with a Strawberry Daiquiri, Long Island Iced Tea, and then a Green Dinosaur it was good.
Got kinda annoyed because I wanted a Tequila Sunrise but they don't have it on the menu anymore Bastards.

If I can turn rotors, and save the customer 10-100 bucks on a brake job, I will. I won't turn them below spec though. That's a lawsuit waiting to happen....
I even turn brand spanking new rotors, as you never know how long they have been sitting on the shelf, and they ain't always nice and true when you take 'em out of the box. I would much rather take a couple thousandths off right away, than have the customer come back with a pedal pulsation, and get to do all that work over again, for free.....
On trucks like mine, where the rotors are staked on to the hub, from BEHIND.... (gotta pull hub to get rotor off.) you can bet your *** I am going to turn the rotors to make damn sure they are true before putting it all back together. That is NOT a job a want to do twice.

I turn rotors everyday and it is not a waste. We are required to turn them on every brake job. We only replace when there is not enough meat on them. If you turn a rotor correctly then it can be reused 2-3 times assuming they never got warpped horribly.

What color is the truck? (VW didn't chime in,......)
I know right!

2 Tone, White and grey...
Nope.
Haha. I can't drink liquor straight, except for Southern Comfort, everything else gives me instant heartburn. Hard to enjoy a drink that way...
However I have a rule, whenever I buy a bottle of liquor, first drink is straight out of the bottle.
I'm more of a beer guy though.
