Default So I Need A Major

I've been done high school for about a year now and I really need to do some post secondary education.
However I can't decide on what I want to study. I'm really into cars and enjoy working with them. However normal mechanics doesn't pay enough in my opinion.

What are some other professions in the Automotive feild that I can look into?

mechanical engineering with emphasis on ground vechicle transportation is the way to go; however, it is a very narrow and difficult path to follow.

i love cars, i love to make parts, i love to work on them and most of all, i am a ME w/ automotive as my emphasis. what's funnie about this is that i'm not working with cars now but with nuclear energy.

most of the engineering for cars are back east, so i do not really want to move. i figure i can get some experience working for a real engineerring company, make money and work on cars as a hobby like it first started out as.

mechanics make alot of money...
