The "skills set" of motor mechanics is likely to change quite drastically (again) in the future - mechanics are likely to have less and less to do especially if electric vehicles take off (like I expect they will) - I guess for a while at least mechanics will have to compensate for the lack of work by charging more for the little they will end up doing...
