... Three weeks, 7 days a week, call it ten hours a day by your estimate = 210 hours. Suppose we get $50/hr = $10,500 in labor costs. Just half of that gets you to that $15,000 total estimate posted earlier. Then you end up with a truck probably worth significantly less than that.
I figure my time spent on PW wrench turning earns about fifty cents an hour in terms of value added to the truck, but then I'm not much of a mechanic.
