On 8/23/2024 Terry Neill had this to say:
These guys were great, they turned my Tacoma 2007 DBL Cab into an almost a brand new truck. I was very satisfied. They took care of things I didn’t expect. The reason for four star rating is because I felt I was not informed enough. I would have been very pleased if I was put in the loop with my insurance sooner. To resolve it quicker. Other than that I would have given it a 5 star rating. Thank you so much for a wonderful job.
