Superb! I had been struggling for several years to find someone willing and able to get my beloved 1994 Ford F150 back into roadworthy condition to haul my horse trailer. All previous mechanics said it was too hard to find parts, they could not diagnose the problem, etc. Within 3 days Gary got back to me with a list of fixable problems he had found (rather extensive, ranging from major to minor), their solutions, cost estimates and, IMHO, a list of priorities as to what needed to be done to make it safe to use. Within a week I had my truck back for exactly what I had been told the top priority repairs would cost. I have now hauled over 2 tons of feed on major highways, with the old Ford purring like a tiger and actually going at or above the speed limit (not previously possible) with good acceleration onto highways (before we took 5 minutes to get to 50 mph, if that!). THANK YOU, Gary! I will be back soon the get the rest of the stuff done
