He's working on his next gold watch is all. Certainly should get one after working on that thing. Problem was circled before it left the assembly line.You gonna make a career of this? Just kidding!
I was in the automotive/light truck repair industry for 40+ years. First 10 years as a tech and then as a service manager/advisor/writer. Even when running shops, I worked on vehicles on the side. I like doing it. Now that I am retired, I want to stay active. I continue to do repairs for money at home and only on what I want to work on. I do not have a lift and my close friend is a current tech and 1/2 owner of a shop. He is in the shop by himself. I am working there to help finish the F150 because it belongs to my neighbor, across the street, and my tech/owner friend is swamped. All GOOD techs are. He knows my work ethic and has a lift and I don't have to move my tools there. As long as I can make decent money and it is worth it to me, I want to work. Again, I dictate what I work on and how I do it.You gonna make a career of this? Just kidding!

I've worked on a few. Nothing that major on newer fords (2000+). Just helping my nephew with small things when I've been in town visiting family.I look at it this way. Does not matter what I work on for money. I can say no if I so choose. This Ford is my neighbor across the street. He has paid me lots of money for other work on this same truck, his wife's car, his small trailer for hauling cans and lawn stuff and his 26 foot travel trailer. When I was drinking, he would keep me supplied with cold beer when working and still pay what I asked. I have also worked on both of his son's vehicles.
I like doing the work and can say no if I want. It all keeps me active and I truly enjoy doing the work. To me, it is fun.
