Local cost reading
What the Washington numbers change
The median metro in our database sits close to $148 per hour. Washington lands $24 above the 50-metro median, with an eight-hour labor subtotal near $1,375.
The local dealer model is $55 higher by the hour. Coverage for the failed part will not erase that difference when the administrator caps its labor payment.
The local climate file has about 60 days at or below freezing. I would read battery and corrosion terms with that exposure in mind, while leaving failure odds alone.
