Fair enough 
All I am saying is that it seems he is willing to build a relationship with his customers, which is a good thing. If he did the same with his suppliers, and managed his purchases (supply chain) as well as he did his shop, he could likely establish several key suppliers that let him make a reasonable markup on parts. As a customer, you would benefit from that. He sounds like a good mechanic, but management of a small business is more than pulling wrenches. That is just my experience from years in the business. The economics in your city/state may be different.
