Reviews
Sep 25, 2011
I've been to a lot of mechanics in town over the years, and
I'm so happy to have found a competent, knowledgeable,
methodical, honest, and kind mechanic. I write this review
to endorse only the one mechanic there that I interacted
with: the man with the blonde mustache. He quickly ran
through component after component of my electrical system
with a test light to find out the problem that all the
other mechanics I talked to only speculated about. He's not
the speculative type; he's the old school roll-up-your-
sleeves-and-figure-out-the-problem kind of guy. Other
mechanics with their new "high tech" computers and gadgets
told me my battery, then alternator, then voltage regulator
were bad after I had each one replaced respectively. This
guy didn't need a computer to misidentify the problem and
cost me copiously unnecessary expenditures until the
problem was found by process of elimination, he just used a
multimeter and test light and traced my problem to a LOOSE
fuse. After his diligent service in the parking lot under
our blistering Florida sun, he charged me nothing. This is
the kind of attention and appreciation of yesteryear that
compels one to be a habitual lifelong customer. You owe it
to yourself to try them out!
