Need to get some work done on my truck, and want to have it done right the first time. I have heard some good things about F.A.T.S. but wanted to know who you have had the best luck with.

Thanks

I am the best but I dont work much anymore as far as wrenching..what do you need done?

I have a long list of stuff that needs to be fixed. It burns oil pretty good and possably a tad of coolant. It also makes a wierd clacking noise when idleing, but wont if you turn all the AC and heat off. It also idles real poor just after you get off the highway and you're sitting at a light. Just a lot of wierd little stuff that drives me nuts. And new brakes...

Thanks for the opinions guys

Superior Automotive on Dowling.

I used to wrench on cars for the owner, Butch, he's a nice guy and they stand behind their work.

Stop by our shop (Meineke) and talk to Blaine...he will take care you. Ask to have Steve or Dwayne work on your rig...both Master Techs both very sharp. Tell him I sent you over and he will give you 10% off your repairs. 279-4541

Just wanted to say your guys did a great job Clayton. Quick and clean and got it fixed right the first time. Thanks again

Thanks for the feedback and patronage. It's been a process since I bought the business in November of 2008. It took about 8 months but I now have the right people in there to take good care of the customers and techs with the know how and work ethic to get things fixed right. :beer;

Its hard to find a good shop that has good management!!! Let alone other good wrenches to work with!:D Sounds like you got it good on both ends!:beer;
