Have you visited one? Would you?

A lot of folks talk about how they "like to do their own repairs" so it stands to reason that cheap time in a bay with a lift with provided tools would be palpable for many especially those living in an apartment or those who just don't own a bunch tools.
What I'm seeing is the trend toward a hybrid offering:
-Self service
-Assisted service for a few bucks more (basically a mechanic advises)
-Full Service
Your thoughts?

We had several of those here back in the 70s. They all went out of business between 3 and 5 years after opening. Was handy as hell since you could rent hoist time, oddball tools and for just a few dollars could get a hand when you needed one. Was also a fun place to hang out of course.
