Talking Ya my independent shop likes to listen to my radio

I had to take my car in the shop today for a Service A. I drove it in listening to Eagle-Eye Cherry(Save tonight) and I turned the car off with that song on my CD playing. This afternoon I picked it up and I get into the car and loud Rap music was blasting through the speekers. Its funny becasue evertime I bring any of my Mercedes in. They always come out with the music blasting. Well I guess they say "Whistle while you work"

Since it was rap, are you sure it wasn't "Whistle While You Twerk" playing?

When the speakers go to hades on you, make sure the SM notes on your RO that the car's sound system was turned up to "JET-ENGINE-TAKEOFF" or 11 on the dial...point that out to him...AAMOF, before you start the car next time, have him start the car FOR YOU...then, as he's wiping the flowing ear-wax from the canals, remind him that that style of music is just a little too NON-YOU and that you'd like it noted that the bass seems to be a bit "faint" and the highs just aren't there anymore...at least, to your discerning ears they aren't...
