This was a first for us, but at the same time it felt very familiar.

We replaced the engine on this 2013 Range Rover Sport last week. While we don't specialize in Euro vehicles, our technicians have experience working on all different types of vehicles. Oddly enough, this Range Rover features a 5.0L supercharged V8 developed by Ford!

When you have this much power, going through tires is easy to do! We installed 4 new BFGoodrich tires on this 2013 Camaro SS.

This Camaro has nearly 170,000 miles on the odometer. This owner sure gets the fun out of his Chevy!

Any Volkswagen Beetle fans out there? Here are some fun facts for you:

1. It held the record of the best-selling car of all time for 25 years.
2. It was designed by Ferdinand Porsche, who is tied to the Porsche brand we know today.
3. The original Beetle had a production period of 65 years, the longest of any single generation in history.

We have worked on Beetles both new and old, and they will always have a huge following!

Ever wonder what a Chevy Blazer looks like with its engine removed? Well, we haven't really either, but the more you know!

This Blazer received a full timing chain job, which meant the engine had to be completely removed to be worked on. No problem for our experienced technicians!

Our goal is to have your tires wear as evenly as possible. This will give you the longest life out of your tires, and save you hundreds of dollars in the long run.

We do this through proper suspension repairs, alignments, and regular tire rotations. Since we recommend rotating your tires at every oil change, we include a complimentary rotation with each of our Preferred and Performance oil change packages!

As you can see in these photos, the front and the rear tires are not wearing evenly, meaning this customer won't get the full life out of these tires. Don't throw your money away, let us help you save money on your tires!

Glitter is great for holiday cards, gift bags, and parties. But it's not great when it comes from your car!

This gear oil is the result of a blown up rear differential on a Jeep Wrangler. The shiny, metallic bits are pieces of the internal parts that failed. Not good!

With our goal being to keep your vehicle on the road, we recommend regular preventative maintenance to avoid major part failures such as this one, saving you money over time.
