I suppose this post from 2007 might give you an idea of Mr. Short's temperament. A few folks on the forum did not take kindly to the negative comments suggesting that Scott Black was trying to line his own packets.

I don't know you Scott, through my search of the last 24 months of Detomaso
List postings I can't find another post by you. You may very well have the
best of intentions.
However, as a PR Professional (?), your rehashing of old news ( that was on
Dateline 3 years ago ) seems highly irresponsible, leading me to question
your motives, seeing that your business targets the automotive marketplace
does nothing to remove any doubt, nothing like creating a problem that you
can offer to help fix for a fee.
There are crooks in every business, yes even PR firms and Jiffy Lube
franchisees, but to use a broad brush to paint all of them as being such is
nothing more than over the backyard fence fearmongering. You above all
others should know that to be true.
Anybody who has their car serviced at any dealership of any kind, esp. one
that promises 30 min or less, and goes and sits on their ass and watches TV
instead of watching their car probably deserves whatever they get. There is
no excuse for the crooks, they should have been arrested, that is nothing
more than stealing, but a smart consumer would be watching and would ALWAYS
request your parts. I personally ask for the new oil filter and date it
myself with a sharpie "for my own records". Fluids changes can be checks by
examining the dipstick for the color of the replacement fluids and lastly if
they don't meet your expectations, refuse to pay until proof has been
furnished, the last thing they want is a car blocking the bay or the police
to show up if they are indeed crooks, too much attention and the last thing
a crook wants is attention.
Trust is overrated, knowing for sure is always the best route to take and if
you're too sorry, too unskilled, or like me, lack the space for a backyard
buddy so that I could easily do those routine things myself, then it is your
responsibility to look out for number one. Nobody else ever will.
