Default Timing belt, water pump and PS hose $1700

Hi,
I think I had a pretty good day. It doesn't show on the outside, but my indie mechanic was looking at my power steering fluid leak. It was obviously the high pressure PS hose @ $500. He also saw a coolant leak at the water pump. He was confident to fix it all and replace my 96K timing belt; I'm glad he did. It's a big job, but not lethal.
Good luck

Did he also say "excuse me" after he kicked you in the cajones??

$1700 for that work is about $1000 too much.
