I think this qualifies you for a "Yes" answer.

used to work for Honda, work for Toyota now. going to school doing the T-TEN(Toyota Technical Education Network) program, i'll be done next summer. wont be doing this as a career tho, i hate working at dealerships. decent perks like having my own lift that i can use whenever but for the most part the people suck and its hard on ur body and can be stressful manual labor for crap pay. there are a couple techs at my work that make over 100k but their much older and their bodies are taking a crap out on them...not worth it..

So where do you ultimately think that your knowledge and skills will take you? Do you want to own and operate your own repair shop? Or a complete career shift?

Too much pressure.

Weren't you recently a Moderator? There must be a huge salary increase associated with your promotion to Administrator.

Congratulations.
