Dave is extremely honest and extremely fair with pricing. He will tell you what you actually need done versus what other mechanics try to tell you and upsell you on.

I compared some mechanics quotes in the area to Dave's and the pricing at Dave's was the best option.

I highly recommend you go here even if you're shopping around for quotes. Dave is quite old school but he is the embodiment of a classic hardworking local that we used to see.

Dave and his staff are easily the best auto mechanic's I have ever dealt with. Very friendly, you can walk in with any concern or problem and within minutes they have an answer of what it may be. Labour prices are cheap and if they can get a used part that will last and save you money they will. Dave, never retire or close because alot of people will be lost without your amazing service.
