I brought in a vehicle that needed three times the amount of work than known about and instead of digging in my wallet and sending me on my way Dustin at Ricks brought all of this to my attention and allowed me into his shop and showed me everything wrong with the vehicle staying after work hours to assist me with every question and concern, Top tier service and care by far.
