For a moron. But here is why he made the mistake. The C900 is FWD but it has a longitudily mounted engine, just like a 1968 Olds Toronado or a 1935 Cord. All RWD cars (that I know of) also have longitudily mounted engines while almost all (like 99.9%) of FWD cars have a tranversily mounted engine. So your idoit mechanic saw the longitude engine and drew his conclustion right there. That's the reason why you have to get a different mechanic.
