A man visited an auto mechanic who gave him an estimate on repairs for his car.
The man said, "That sounds fine. But I also intend to get an estimate from the mechanic down the street."
"Well," the man replied, "I can't say anything against him. He's the best friend I got."
Surprised at the friendly competition, he went and got the second estimate.
When he returned to the first repair shop, the mechanic greeted him with a smile.
"He doubled my bid for labor, didn't he? I told you he's the best friend I got."
