Our Story

We set out to create the customer experience that we wished we could have ourselves in a car care shop. We wanted our friends and families to be able to take care of their cars without all of the “stuff” that left us feeling intimidated, embarrassed, and like we were being fleeced at other shops. We wanted to be able to buy tires without feeling confused and or bullied into purchasing more than we needed. We wanted to create a place that felt safe and approachable for ALL customers. 

So often purchasing tires is a mystery, it's confusing and can be intimidating for many people. Car repairs are the same way. We walk in not really knowing what we need, how much it should cost, or if we are going to be bullied or scammed into something our cars don’t really need. Has this ever happened to you?

We’ve all been there, whether when we bring our cars in for tires or a simple oil change and we get bombarded with jargon and a high-pressure “upsell” from the shop staff. Here our commitment is to recommend what you need and explain why you need it. If a repair or service can wait, we will tell you that and remind you on your next visit. Our recommendations are based on what each vehicle needs now, and determining what can be put off for a future visit to keep today’s bill low.

With a combined experience of 45+ years in the industry we put together a team of technicians who are experts in their field. We are trusted by local fire departments and other emergency services providers to work on their vehicles.

We help individuals and local businesses keep their cars and trucks in good condition to get more life out of them and avoid costly repair or replacement options. Our team will go above and beyond with whatever you need. We provide affordable solutions and a comfortable experience. Book your appointment today and let us take care of you and your car!
