I wouldn't says it's extremely difficult but it can be done. With the right training going down the correct paths and just not being lazy its possible. I've been a tech at my dealer for 7 years. I'm 28, master tech for BMW. I am a team leader with an apprentice working under me. I truly believe I am doing very well for my age and career. There are a handful of techs at my dealer (25ish at my dealer) making over 6 figures. We have had two techs over the past 4 years gross 200k+.. long story behind that but
Now on the other side we have other guys who do the bare minimum and have poor attitudes that will never get to the same position.
Besides what you put into it. Your attitude I think is even more important. I have seen very skilled techs bounce from dealer to dealer because they are just a sad human being that will never reach a good living.
