When something needs to be fixed, for most people there is no easy way to tell if they are being charged the going rate or are being ripped off. Enter <A href="http://www.repairpal.com/">RepairPal<IMG src="http://i.ixnp.com/images/v3.33.0.10/t.gif" class="snap_preview_icon" id="snap_com_shot_link_icon" /></A>, a new site launching publicly today where you can get price estimates for different parts and repair jobs for your car. You enter your car year, model, and mileage, and it spits out price ranges for your zip code. For instance, replacing the front brake pads on a BMW in New York City should cost between $158 and $310.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/06/12/repairpal-its-like-google-health-for-your-car/"><P>Not sure where to take your car? There is also a directory of 287,000 local mechanics, with each shop placed onto a Google Map. Members can rate each mechanic. Once a repair is completed, you can keep an online service record at RepairPal. It is kind of like keeping your electronic medical record <A href="http://">at Google Health<IMG src="http://i.ixnp.com/images/v3.33.0.10/t.gif" class="snap_preview_icon" id="snap_com_shot_link_icon" /></A>, but it’s for your car. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/E79DD63B-B0F8-4B8D-963B-F2F8CC702C7D/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
