I've been divorced for over a year now and had depended on my husband to take care of certain things like household repairs and car maintenance. I was completely lost without the first clue as to how to do certain things, or even what should be done to keep my car running. When my car started making a funny noise, I panicked, what was i going to do? I looked up local mechanics in the yellow pages and after a few phone calls found that the Pit Stop had time to look at my car right away. The owner (John) was very reassuring, and upfront about how he couldn't diagnose the car or quote me a price without looking at it first, but would be happy to look at it that day, and go from there. As it turned out, it wasn't anything major or expensive, but simply that my car had been lacking a little TLC. John personally took the time to show me what was going on (it was low on a few fluids and desperately needed a mileage service, having surpassed it's 60,000 by a lot!) and explained to me the basics of maintaining a car, including what needed to be done when, and even taught me how to check the fluids under the hood myself! I got an estimate for my overdue mileage service and an oil change, but best of all I got some priceless knowledge every gal should know. Thanks to John I regained some sense of independence, but also learned it's ok to rely on someone for help, especially when they're honest.
Pros: Honest, Fair Prices, Above and Beyond "fix it and collect"
