diesel mechanics is pretty good, but autobody is too

there might be more money in diesel mechanics though

I am taking auto body at my vo-tech school. I love the class, it is so much fun, and I am learning alot. I can't compare how much I would be making to the other fields you were looking at cause I don't know how much they make. But I am using this class as a stepping stone for what I really want to do, which is work on hot rods and all that custom stuff. When I graduate I hope to go to Wyo-Tech or some other one year trade school like it.

Im attend Boces now in Goshen (Orange County). Im taking Auto Technology 1. My buddy takes Auto Body over there.

Its better not to worry about which one pays more, because they are both great paying jobs if you become a technician. Find out which one you enjoy doing more.

I don't really know anything about auto body, so I just toke Auto Tech. I like my class though. I just got done doing a quarter semester of brakes. Now im onto doing Engines. Next quarter i'll be doing steering and suspension, then i'll be in Auto Tech 2.

I like the school though. I learned alot so far.
