After you have taken a few classes you will know what you can safely do to your car and exactly what tools you will need. I have take many classes over the years and the information you will get from the experienced instructors will prove invaluable.

I prefer YouTube and a good service manual

The high end Harbor freight tools are not bad for home tools. .

What do you need....a lot of "elbow grease"

Logic and patience.
Oh yes and lots of tools.

If you are looking to wrench on your 2017 a factory service manual is great. Skip the Chilton junk as they often have incorrect info. You can get completed an on the helm website. A word of warning these are not cheap, but they have instructions on every aspect of that vehicle's repair.
