Brandon and his crew are awesome, Ludo (2000 Excursion 7.3) has never run better. I brought it in to have a stripped t-case plug tapped out and asked for a general inspection due to an oil and coolant leak. 25 year old truck needed a few things. He identified everything needed and gave me a quote. Steering drag…

We have been taking vehicles to brandon for a while now and always been very happy with the service. They always stand behind their work and find the problem the first time. Amazing staff and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

I had visited Les Shwab and they did not have my parts and could not tell me on their computers whether they would have the parts that day. So I sat for an hour and a half…

Brandon and Richard are fantastic mechanics and Cayla at the front desk is fantastic as well! They are very honest and reasonable. I know when they work on my vehicle I'm not getting a run around or being talked down to. I absolutely recommend this place.
