Dear Bestwick,a shop like mine has many hidden expenses,updating equipment,hiring only the best technicians,taxes,environmental fees,chemicals,cleaning supplies,classes for technicians,uniforms,rags and hand tools,for example,most customers don,t realize this.We strive to be cutting edge with our techs,equipment and location for our customers in order to keep them safe and reliable transportation because we care about them! We must remain a cutting edge shop for this reason,which is quite expensive to do! If you compare our prices to a shop that will only be there for a short time and don't care about their customer's safety or reliability issues,we may seem expensive ,however if you compare us to a dealership or other well equipped shop with only the best technicians and service money can buy,we will seem to be well below their prices.We are selling great service and great value to great customers,and wish to continue for many years to come,we have to make profit to make this commitment, i hope you better understand how the business and associated cost to do business plays a part in our pricing structure now,thanks for your time,don.
