“What a great experience! Will picked up the phone immediately and recommended a time for me to bring the car for an oil change. I was out of state and needed to wait for the car. I drove my car to Broadway and my car was taken inside for the oil change immediately. Will told me what was covered with the oil change. He was also able to give me an estimate to repair the motor on my moon roof, saving me money on a quote given to me by the dealer. He explained that I would need to leave the car for the day. If the weather was bad, Tuffy’s could probably help me out with a ride. He was so knowledgeable about changing spark plugs, too. Fair prices. Intelligent mechanics. Superior service. Thank you.”
