We putted our way to the nearest high rated mechanic. As soon as the mechanic arrived we got a price quote, and promptly began working on our vehicle. The time went over what was estimated but the price did not. He was very thorough and explained everything that was happening with our vehicle. We liked the transparency when with the large bay window looking into the shop. We are extremely pleased with the service. If we lived in the area we would definitely make this our go to mechanic.Evan R.
