i work at allstate ford here im the only one that torques the lugnuts rest use a airgun and wonder why they snap studs off or strip the head . even had the idiot shop manager tell me im wasting labor torquing them. so ill be changing jobs soon just remember they let any one use a wrench. theres only 3 people i trust touching my cars.

Yeah, I hate that. So much broken/stripped hardware out there cuz of things like that, not to mention warped rotors on a lot of the newer cars. I worked for a guy that was cool, we torqued EVERYTHING(if you could get to it with a torque wrench anyway). Especially lug nuts
