Totally agree. Despite having had an alignment issue with my car, I find it very unlikely that they can determine an alignment from a picture. Seems like somebody invented this picture system with the sole intention of making it easier for dealers to make more money. It's a cash grab, for a cash grab lol

Well, at least they put in a smidgen of effort on putting on a show and tell act for the customer. There's some that put in no effort at all - like a tire shop web site I ran across that just flat out recommended annual alignments for their customers.
