I believe you can make it both ways. There are a lot of things you learn going to college that you would not have learned in getting the job. There are also a lot of things you can learn on the job that you will never learn in school. On cars for example: everything is possible. You just have to have the time and the courage to attack problems and learn them on your own. I started from the ground up 4 years ago. My parents/friends had no interest in cars. I never thought I would get to the point of pulling 5 heads, 4 motors, and 1 tranny in one year.
