That's right. It goes by book time and, from what I understand, in this area, the dealerships are at $93 per flag hour. They also charge full list for parts, charge for "shop supplies" which is, I think is 3% of taxable amount up to $25-$30. They also charge an average of $3-$5 hazardous disposal to each bill, even if it's just an air filter. It's the nature of the beast and it's expensive but, so is all the stuff they have to keep up with technology-wise!
