That's good rates, ours is not 75$ for mechanical, body and paint is stuck at 51$, not 100% sure on what shop gets on frame right now but I don't think it is 65$ despite the decline in payout from insurance companies on labor hrs per job...We are statefarm service 1st and enterprise rental contracted plus other contracts...
