An individual who can preform car repairs and maintenance for a fraction of the cost if those same services were done at a dealership. The Shade Tree Mechanic, more commonly known simply as "Shade Tree" is very knowledgeable of how to service most domestic vehicles manufactured before 1995. Any vehicle manufactured after 1995 and import vehicles in particular are problematic for Shade Tree; however, Shade Tree will tell you otherwise.
Shade Tree operates from his own driveway or in front of his house on the street. Ideally, the service work is preformed beneath a tree with a large canopy providing necessary shade during hot summer days hence, the title "Shade Tree."
Be advised, the Shade Tree does not possess any metric tools, uses vise-grip pliers in practically every repair situation and will require you make multiple trips to the auto parts store to replace things inadvertently damaged by the apologetic Shade Tree during the service repair process.
Most shade trees will barter and accept various forms of payment including cash, a carton of cigarettes, liquor, Wendy's or Burger King.

Mike: Bruh, go around the corner and holla at that Shade Tree Mechanic. He'll hook you up for a pack of squares and some Chick-fil-A.

That guy from school or work who reads up on car magazines, plays the latest Gran Turismo or Forza title and swears the Honda S2000 could slam a Porshe 911. They might know something about cars, but your best off not trusting a word they say.

To quote wikipedia.com: "A mechanic's lean is a security interest in the title to property for the benefit of those who have supplied labor and/or materials that improve said property. The lean exists for both real property and personal property. Said security interest entitles said mechanic to physically rest his back or shoulder against said item of property (resentful scowling and indignant arms-folding optional) until such time as said property's owner shells out correct payment for said property-improving labor and/or materials."
The primary purpose of outlawing running-boards on most modern vehicles was not for safety-reasons; it was to discourage garage-repairmen from performing mechanic's leans on said vehicles while people were trying to drive around town.
